Description

Teach your 6th grade data and statistics unit with this comprehensive set of notes, graphing activities, and data and statistics assessments! This unit is designed to fit neatly in your students' interactive notebooks while also providing easy to copy and use pages that take almost no time to prep.

The first part of the unit covers how to create and read data using leaf-and-stem plots, dot plots, histograms, and box plots. Students use pre-made graphs and charts to learn about the important parts of each type of graph and also create their own using statistical data.

The second part of the unit teaches how to find the measures of center: mean, median, and mode. Students analyze the benefits and limitations of each as a measure of central tendency and practice finding these measures.

The third part of the unit is over measures of spread and variation. For Texas TEKS classrooms, this includes range and interquartile range (IQR), and just for Common Core classes, use the mean absolution deviation page to teach your students how to find the M.A.D.

The final part of the unit allows students to practice analyzing the shape of data using symmetry, skew, gaps, clusters, and outliers. With tons of graph examples, students will learn how to visually identify these data elements and how they can affect the measures of center.

A completely DIGITAL version is now included! This Google Slides resource is perfect for distance learning, virtual teaching, or paperless classrooms.

Half-Pages Notes included in this set:

  • What is Variability?
  • Dot Plots
  • Stem-and-Leaf Plots
  • Histograms
  • Box Plots
  • Measures of Central Tendency
  • Mode
  • Median
  • Mean
  • Range
  • Interquartile Range (IQR)
  • Mean Absolute Deviation (for CCSS classrooms)
  • Skew and Symmetry
  • Gaps, Clusters, and Outliers

Practice Activities includes:

  • Roll a Graph
  • Spin the Center
  • A Range of Experience
  • Shape of Data Matching

Assessments included:

  • Displaying Data Assessment (3 questions)
  • Measures of Center Assessment (4 questions)
  • Measures of Spread Assessment (4 questions)
  • Data Shape Assessment (4 questions)

This interactive notebook unit is fully aligned to the 6th grade Texas TEKS 6.12: TEKS 6.12B, TEKS 6.12C, TEKS 6.12D, TEKS 6.13A, and TEKS 6.13B.

Questions & Answers

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data related to the question and accounts for it in the answers. For example, “How old am I?” is not a statistical question, but “How old are the students in my school?” is a statistical question because one anticipates variability in students’ ages.
Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a distribution which can be described by its center, spread, and overall shape.
Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how its values vary with a single number.
