Description
Box and whisker plots notes are engaging and easy to follow with this math wheel format. You can use this math wheel to introduce (or review) and practice reading box and whisker plots.
What is a math doodle wheel? It's a type of graphic organizer where students can:
- Take notes inside the math wheel
- Use color, drawing, and doodling to help create memory triggers
- Complete practice problems in the pattern around the wheel, and
- Color the background pattern
Students can keep these graphic organizers in their interactive notebooks all year as a personal anchor chart or reference sheet.
- The wheels are excellent for reviewing concepts as part of your test prep.
- You can even print an enlarged version and use as an anchor chart!
The sections of the wheel include the steps to create a box-and-whisker plot and an example section:
1) Order #s from least to greatest
2) Place points at smallest and largest values
3) Find the median; add point
4) Find the 1st and 3rd quartiles; add points
5) Draw box and whiskers
6) IQR and Example (use to answer the questions outside the circle)
- In each section, students will identify the points that are part of the box-and-whisker plot.
- As they move from one section to the next, they’ll need to add the points from the previous section, in addition to the newly identified points.
- In step 5, they’ll need to add all 5 points before drawing the box and whiskers.
This resource includes:
1) THREE versions of the student wheel
- ‘Open’ for students to write/add all notes: this version is more flexible, allowing you to phrase notes as you’d like
- Fill-in notes, to help control student use of space
- Pre-filled notes for students who are absent or need pre-filled; answers to examples and practice problems are NOT on this version
2) Teacher key/wheel with completed notes and examples
3) Colored sample of wheel
4) PowerPoint file with two editable templates ~ you can add text to make your own wheels for any topic (for classroom use only - not commercial use).
Features of this easy-to-use resource:
- Notes sections and examples
- Guided or independent practice: there are 9 questions in the pattern around the circle. These should be answered using the box-and-whisker example in the IQR/example section of the wheel
- Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows, however they like.
Coloring the background:
- Students don’t HAVE to color at all during instructional time….coloring the background could be an ‘early finisher’ activity, center activity, homework, etc.
- Students don’t need to color every section of the background – part of their coloring pattern could be to leave sections white.
- Students could color sections with patterns instead of solids – maybe polka dots in one section and squiggly lines in another.
- This coloring part is just a chance to be creative and enjoy the stress-relief coloring can provide
