• Standard(s) address by this artifact
• E. Representations
• 1. Create and use representations to organize,
  record, and communicate mathematical ideas.
• - Pictorial representations (e.g., diagrams,
  charts, or tables)
• - Graphical representations (e.g., a line graph)
• 2. Select, apply, and translate among
  mathematical representations to solve problems.
• 3. Use representations to model and interpret
  physical, social, and mathematical phenomena.
• F. Technology
• 1. Use technology to gather, analyze, and
  communicate mathematical information.
• 2. Use computer spreadsheets, software, and
  graphing utilities to organize and display
  quantitative information.
• Abstract (content summary and importance of
  artifact)
• The power point presentation is a wonderful
  teaching strategy if used correctly. Teaching
  Social Studies effectively means not reading from
  the text in fact the text does not give enough
  pictures for students to really understand
  certain concepts and ideas. With power point
  teachers are then able to insert pictures the
  text would never have and this is extremely
  beneficial to the students learning. In this
  particular presentation, I have included pictures
  of all types of graphs students need to know how
  to analyze as well as create.

Types of Graphsby Miss Gianni

What is a graph?

• A graph is a kind of drawingit uses pictures ,
  circles, bars, or lines to compare things.
• A graph is like a map

4
Types of Graphs

• Pictograph- uses small pictures or symbols to
  show information
• Bar graph- uses bars to compare information

5
Types of Graphs

• Line graph- uses lines to show how things change
  over a period of time
• Pie graph- shape of a circle and shows parts of a
  whole
