standard_description: Draw a picture graph and a bar graph (with single-unit scale) to represent a data set with up to four categories. Solve simple put together, take-apart, and compare problems  using information presented in a bar graph.
problem_activity: Warm-up
The purpose of this warm-up is for students to analyze symbolic statements about square roots and decide if they are true or not based on the meaning of the square root symbol.
Launch
Display one problem at a time. Tell students to give a signal when they have an answer and a strategy. After each problem, give students 1 minute of quiet think time and follow with a whole-class discussion.
Student Facing
Decide if each statement is true or false.
\(\left( \sqrt{5} \right)^2=5\)
\(\left(\sqrt{9}\right)^2 = 3\)
\(7 = \left(\sqrt{7}\right)^2\)
\(\left(\sqrt{10}\right)^2 = 100\)
\(\left(\sqrt{16}\right)= 2^2\)

Activity Synthesis
Poll students on their responses for each problem. Record and display their responses for all to see. If all students agree, ask 1 or 2 students to share their reasoning. If there is disagreement, ask students to share their reasoning until an agreement is reached.
