Once upon a time, there was a curious little girl named Lily who loved to collect and analyze data. She had a special device that could scan the temperature of anything she pointed it at. One day, she decided to use it to find out which room in her house was the warmest.
She went from room to room, taking the temperature of each one and recording the data on a piece of paper using tally marks. After she finished scanning all the rooms, she counted the tally marks for each room and made a bar graph to represent the data.
Lily looked at the bar graph and tried to guess which column represented the warmest room. She counted the degree of each room and found out which one was the highest. To her surprise, it was the room she least expected!
From that day on, Lily always used her special device and her love for data to make informed guesses and solve problems in new and exciting ways.

Reflections

1. What was Lily's special device for collecting data?
2. How did Lily represent her data about the temperature of each room?
3. Which room was the warmest in Lily's house?
4. What did Lily use to make informed guesses about the temperature of each room?
5. What did Lily learn from her temperature adventure?
