Line Plots with Fractions Song Lyrics

Yeah, we're in the fourth grade analyzing the data we got

About how many inches we grew in a year on a line plot

First we'll find a common denominator

Next we'll convert to equivalent fractions for the data

From zero to four inches, we'll draw the line plot

Our interval's a quarter inches, each is given a spot

We'll plot each data point and we won't stop

Until the unit's on the bottom and the title's on the top

Top, top, top

First find a common denominator

Make equivalent fractions for all the data

We'll plot what you got on the line plot

With a label and a the title at the top

Now we're writing the fifth graders' growth data down

How many inches they grew in a year is what we have found

First we'll find a common denominator

Next we'll convert to equivalent fractions for the data

From zero to four inches, we'll draw the line plot

Our interval's are quarter inches, each is given a spot

We'll plot each data point and we won't stop

Until the unit's on the bottom and the title's on the top

First find a common denominator

Make equivalent fractions for all the data

We'll plot what you got on the line plot

With a label and a the title at the top

Now we'll analyze the two line plots we made

And see that students grew more in the fourth grade

The fifth graders grew less, but that was okay

'Cause overall the fifth graders are taller anyway

And we fourth graders don't care, we may be shorter

But we rock math every week of every quarter

First find a common denominator

Make equivalent fractions for all the data

We'll plot what you got on the line plot

With a label and a the title at the top
