GRASPS
Goal: You will sort, organize and graph the products that will be shipped in a truck to Everything Mart.
Role: You are an analyst. You will be working with your group of four analysts and will be making four different graphs to represent the products that will be shipped to Everything Mart.
Audience: You will be presenting the data/information graphs to the manager of Everything Mart, Mr. George Graph. He will be checking to see if all the graphs show the correct information.
Situation: There was a big storm at the Everything Mart Headquarters and the sixteen products were mixed up. Mr. George Graph needs help organizing the products into four categories: food, clothing, furniture, and sports equipment. As the manager, Mr. Graph needs to make sure there is enough space at Everything Mart for the different products that will be coming to the store. Mr. Graph wants four graphs showing how many of each product will be arriving to Everything Mart. You and your group (four analysts) will be sorting the products into four groups and creating a graph that shows the number of items that will be shipped into Everything Mart. After graphing the four graphs, you will need to write what you see about each graph. Tell which one has the most, least or same. Describe what you see in each graph.
Four large boxes were shipped in the Everything Mart Truck. These were the sixteen items in the four large boxes.
Box 1: 4 apples, 24 shirts, 10 chairs and 27 basketballs
Product/Performance: You will sort the sixteen different products into four categories: food, clothing, furniture, and sports equipment. You will create a picture graph for the food, a vertical bar graph for the clothing, a horizontal bar graph for the furniture and a table for the sports equipment. All four graphs need to be labeled correctly and be as neat as possible so that it is easy to read. Each analyst will turn in his or her own writings and interpretations about the graphs. Write a few sentences for each graph explaining what you see and know from the graph. You and your group will put all four graphs on a poster board and present it to the class and Mr. George Graph. You will need to work kindly with your group members by sharing and doing things fairly.
