- Describe and label attributes of a sorted set of objects (e.g., size, color, shape).
- Pose questions requiring data collection limited to 25 or fewer data points for no more than four categories.
- Determine data needed to answer a posed question and collect data using methods like counting objects or drawing pictures.
- Organize and represent a data set as an object graph by sorting concrete objects into organized groups.
- Organize and represent a data set as a picture graph using pictures to form a simple graph.
- Analyze data in object graphs and picture graphs by asking and answering questions about the data.
- Draw conclusions and make predictions based on data in object graphs and picture graphs.
