What this lesson shows
Two bars for each month, one for each class. Read each pair against the scale, compare them, and say what the graph shows.
The worked example
The lesson works this one step by step: 25 and 20, 30 and 40, 35 and 15, 20 and 30. Then your kid tries one like it on paper.
The steps
- A key for the two groups
- Read each bar against the scale
- Subtract to compare a pair
- Say what the graph shows
Helping at home
Draw two bars side by side for each month, week, or day, one plain and one shaded, with a key that says which is which. Read each bar against the scale, then subtract the shorter from the taller to see how far apart they are.
If your kid gets stuck
Two bars side by side, and a key to tell them apart.
Watch it with Lux
With Lux, this lesson is a narrated video and a printed page your kid works on. Then Lux helps with the same math on their own worksheet, one question at a time.
