Hello my wonderful Grade 5 superstar! π
I'm Kashef and today we're learning about Line Plots! A line plot uses a number line with dots stacked above each number to show how many times something happens. It's great for showing measurements like height, test scores, or how many pets you have! Ready to stack some dots? Letβs go! π
π§ What is a Line Plot?
Numbers on the bottom (like a ruler). Dots stacked on top show how many times each number appears.
