Put your students in charge with this hands-on, real-world data exploration activity! As newly hired property managers, students will dive into realistic scenarios, sorting response cards to uncover patterns and relationships in the data. Students will create two-way tables and use them to analyze relationships.

Will families with kids flock to the pool? Do second-floor residents really complain more about noise? Your students will investigate these questions and more as they analyze variable relationships, make evidence-based claims, and engage in meaningful discussion.

Perfect as an engaging kickoff to your data or statistics unit, this activity also works beautifully for independent or group practice. It encourages curiosity, critical thinking, and real-world connections—no dry charts or boring worksheets here!

Students will need to be able to calculate percentages to complete this activity. Students or teacher will need to cut out response cards prior to sorting.
