4.7A+Lesson+Ideas

This is a lesson I originally created for 3rd grade, but quickly realized that it worked for my fourth graders as well. The kids were struggling with finding the relationships between the sets of data. The concrete component builds to a pictorial component and then finally to the abstract, which is best for concept development. The kids were struggling because the concept in and of itself is too abstract for a lot of them at this age. Building the tables with manipulatives with help bridge the gap for them.
