Line Graphs

I can draw a line graph

 

Today you are going to be using data to draw your own line graph. Watch the White Rose video below which explains how to complete this task step-by-step.

See the example of a line graph below:

 

 

Notice that points are plotted on the corner of each square. Plot each temperature first by looking at the time in minutes (along the corridor) and work your way up (up the stairs) to the correct temperature. When you have plotted the data use a ruler to draw a line to connect each of the points. Watch Mr Pegram model how to draw a line graph.

 

Your turn - practise plotting the data onto the graph below. Use your squared paper to draw the graph. Make sure you draw your x and y axis big enough to include all of the data.
