Start-Up Activity

Have students trace one of their hands. Then ask them to think of labels—"thumb," "forefinger," "fingernails," and so on—for their drawings. When the pictures are completed, ask volunteers to share their drawings with the class. Explain that these diagrams are a kind of graphic.

Then have a volunteer read aloud the introduction to the chapter.

As an enrichment activity, ask students to think about another symbol not shown on the page. Have them draw the symbol and exchange it with a partner. Does the partner recognize the symbol?

Learning About Tables

Review the samples and tips for understanding tables. Then, as a class, make your own table.

Ask students what kind of pets they have at home. Write each species in a list (dog, cat, hamster, gecko, fish, and so on). Then to the right of the list, create columns for number, male, and female for the pets. Have students draw this same table. Then poll students to find out how many dogs they have, how many are male, and how many are female. Have students fill in the information in their tables. Move on to the next species and continue until all of the rows are filled in.
