A line plot of the lengths of a class set of pencils, measured to the nearest half inch, with one X for each pencil. The number line is marked in halves, the way grade 3 line plots are. Six questions ask how many pencils were measured, how many have a given length, the most common length, how many are longer than a given length, the longest length and the difference between the longest and the shortest. Measure some real pencils and make your own plot afterwards. Page 2 is the answer key.
