Data Analysis & Probability Alma JuarezAlicia RamirezCecilia Zaragoza Melissa LopezFabiola Lopez Luz Macias n

Definition Analysis of data is a process of inspecting, cleaning, transforming, and modeling data with the goal of discovering useful information, suggesting conclusions, and supporting decision-making. The probability of an event is the measure of the chance that the event will occur as a result of an experiment. The probability of an event A is the number of ways event A can occur divided by the total number of possible outcomes.

Objectives Rationale (Objective): Recognizing numerals, counting using 1:1 correspondence, sorting and matching by color, counting up to 10 and beyond. Social Development: Most children will socially interact with peers. Most children will practice sharing among peers. Emotional Development: Children will feel a sense of accomplishment for doing their work on their own or as a group. Children will built self confidence. Cognitive Development: Enhance matching ability. Most children will develop color, shape and recognition awareness. Physical Development: Improve fine motor skills. Children will learn to improve their eye-hand coordination when cutting, tossing and coloring. Practice motor skills using control and precision to pick up and drop small materials, pincer grasp, hand/eye co-ordination.

Activity 1: Favorite fruit Materials Large Poster ( Board or graph) in the format of a bar graph, with numbers on the left side and a picture of the fruits on the bottom. Stickers or cut outs of fruit images and concrete fruit Example: Apple Banana Strawberries Cucumber Papaya Glue stick Procedures Introduction: We will display a large paper poster board/graph with the images of 5 fruits and the lines,numbers and fruit pictures ready to go. (apples, bananas, strawberries, cucumber and papaya). Steps of Activity: Display a bowl of fruit which will contain the five options for children to see, touch and smell. Have every child keep the fruit they prefer and then go up to the poster and glue the picture of the fruit they are holding.

Activity 2: How many letters are in your name? Procedures Introduction: Read “Tally O’Malley”. On the poster board draw a line across the paper and number it 1 threw 12 across and lines going down for each number. Have each child write the letters of their name on each piece of square construction paper in the color the pick. Steps of Activity: Have each child write the letters of their names on each piece of square construction paper. They will glue each square to the poster board, spelling out their name (with teachers help if needed). Each child will put their name across the poster board and count how many letters make up their name. When all the children are don they will step back and see who’s name is the longest and who’s is the shortest and in between. Materials Large white poster board Markers Colored construction paper cut to small squares Stick glue Scissors

Activity 3: Penny Toss Material Penny toss chart Pennies pencil Procedures Introduction: Read to the class Tally Cats Keeps Track, if not found play video _ODQk0DquMhttps:// _ODQk0DquM Steps of Activity: Ask the class, If I was to toss a penny 30 times, what will I get more, heads or tails? Partner each student. One student will tally and the other will penny toss. Students will do it for 30 times and find out which of their guesses was correct. End: Students will confirm if their prediction or estimation was correct.

Activity 4: Marbles Material Box with hole on top Red, Blue, Yellow, and Green marbles Crayons Probability handout Procedures Most children will listen for directions from teacher and view a sample of the activity in action before trying on their own. Children will shake the box with different colored marbles to mix all of the colors. Then they will take turns and pick a marble out of the box without looking into the box and choosing a specific color. Once they have taken a colored marble out of the box they will get a crayon and color in 1 box next to the appropriate color name. At the end they will count the amount of colored marbles that were chosen and they will determine which colored marble was chosen the most.

Modifications All children will either have their own materials each to accomplish the activity or have enough materials to accomplish activity in partners. Teacher will explain instructions in English and in home language if possible. If there are any disabled children, assist the child in all needs.

Assessment of Learning: Open ended-questions: What can you tell me about what we did? What materials did you use? How did you feel while doing the activities?

Follow Up Activities Activity 1: Dot Marker Counting. Take a dot marker set, which includes 6 colors, and dotted each side of a 1 inch wood block with each color. Then take turns rolling a number die and the color die. If we rolled a "3" and a "teal" then we would put 3 teal dots on a piece of paper.dot marker1 inch wood block Activity 2: M & M Probability Before students start they will answer, which color will appear more in your mystery box and which color will appear the least in your mystery box? Have a mystery box filled with M&M’s and students will be able to pull from the mystery box. Each student will pull out an M&M and record the colors they pull out.
