Interpret Data: Seeds

Overview:

This worksheet guides upper years students to interpret data from a line graph comparing the growth of two plants, radish and kale, over several days. Students will answer questions related to the plants' growth patterns and make inferences based on the data presented.

Learning Objectives:

• Interpret data presented in a line graph.
• Compare growth trends between different plants.
• Identify specific data points and use them to answer questions.
• Make inferences about growth patterns based on the graph.

How the Activity Works:

Students examine the line graph showing the growth of radish and kale plants over a series of days. They answer a series of questions, such as identifying the first plant to grow, determining plant heights on specific days, and analysing the periods of fastest growth. This activity reinforces the understanding of data interpretation, comparison, and pattern recognition, while also encouraging critical thinking about growth rates in the context of the experiment.
