1 Winter Olympics Bloomsmath is a comprehensive mathematics program which provides a fun way for every student to be learning to the best of their ability. This is a stand alone set specifically designed for the 2014 Winter Olympics for students in Grades 2-5. By Rachel McCann (B.Teach; B.Ed Hons; M.ED (Special Ed.)
2 Winter Olympics Data and Graphing This special Winter Olympics edition of Bloomsmath is designed for students in Grades 2 to 5. It allows students to gather, organise, display and interpret data using graphs and tables with all activities related to the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. Knowledge: Students read a copy of the official 2014 Winter Olympics schedule of events and answer questions related to the time, duration and the ability to attend various events. Students who demonstrate proficiency in this activity move on to Comprehension. STOP Students stop here as they require additional teacher support to master this activity. Comprehension: Students create a timetable given a list of various Winter Olympic events, their duration and the fictitious times they need to occur. Students who demonstrate proficiency in this activity move on to Application. STOP Students stop here if time has run out or they require additional support with this activity. Application: Students use the tally information given to create a column graph of information related to the Winter Olympics such as men, women, events. Students who demonstrate proficiency in this activity move on to Analysis. STOP Students stop here if time has run out or they require additional support with this activity. Analysis: Students keep a tally record of the medals won by of the countries competing in the 2014 Winter Olympics and answer questions related to the results they graph. Students who demonstrate proficiency in this activity move on to Synthesis. STOP Students stop here if time has run out or they require additional support with this activity. Synthesis: Students use the information they collection on the countries and the 100 part table provided to convert their column graphs into a pie chart and find percentage results for the countries. Evaluation: Suggested questions provide a starting point for discussions related to Whole Number. Students may complete more or fewer activities for each learning outcome depending on the time allocated and their strength in the area being covered. All students should participate in the Evaluation discussion to encourage the use of mathematical language, logical reasoning and reflection on that which they have completed.

8 Data and Graphing Discussion The following questions are provide as a starting point for fun discussions related to Data and Graphing. During these conversations students will have an opportunity to use appropriate mathematical language in its correct context, to engage in reflection on the Data and Graphing activities they have completed and to use logical reasoning to tie their in-class mathematics to its everyday context. Which country won the most medals in the 2014 Winter Olympics? Why do you think this may be? Why do you need 100 blocks when turning the medal results into a pie graph in the Synthesis activity? How else could you create a pie graph using the medal information collected being sure to be accurate in your graphing? Why couldn t the Winter Olympics be held in Australia in February? When could the Winter Olympics be held in Australia? It is reported that the 2014 Winter Olympics are the most expensive Olympics in history costing US$51 billion. Write this figure on the board and discuss some of the things Russia could have bought with this money. WO 2-5 EV
