Exploring Scaled Picture Graphs in 3rd Grade Math

The video tutorial for third graders covers lesson 3.8 on scaled picture graphs. It begins with a warm-up activity using calculators to skip count by tens and fives. Students then learn to create scaled picture graphs using pattern blocks, followed by an exercise on representing car wash data in a picture graph. The lesson emphasizes using calculators for counting and understanding data representation through graphs.
