Draw and Interpret Line Graphs

 

Students learn how to draw and interpret real-life line graphs.

As learning progresses, students learn how to use line graphs to interpret trends over time and predict future values.

Differentiated Learning Objectives
  • All students should be able to construct a line graph given scaled axes.
  • Most students should be able to construct and interpret a line graph to identify trends over time.
  • Some students should be able to use a line graph to compare two data sets over time.
