Scatterplot Interactive Foldable
Share

Description

Students will complete this printable foldable in small groups lessons or in a guided whole group session. Students will be able to describe if a graph has a positive, negative, or no correlation. Students will learn the difference between association and correlation. Students will practice identifying weak versus strong graphs. Students will provide examples of weakly correlated and strongly correlated graphs. Students will identify situations as having a positive, negative, or no correlation. Students will create their own situations that represent positive, negative, and no correlation. Students will practice drawing a line of best fit on graphs, then identifying the strength and the type of correlation of the graph.

Directions: PRINT (pages 2-5) double sided. PRINT answer key (pages 6-9) double sided. To create foldable, fold both papers at the dotted lines going across the page. Then make sure titles are in order and on the bottom of each page: "Positive, Negative, and No Correlation", "Weak Correlation vs Strong Correlation", and "Line of Best Fit". For more security, you can staple it at the top, but it isn't necessary.

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Construct and interpret scatter plots for bivariate measurement data to investigate patterns of association between two quantities. Describe patterns such as clustering, outliers, positive or negative association, linear association, and nonlinear association.
Know that straight lines are widely used to model relationships between two quantitative variables. For scatter plots that suggest a linear association, informally fit a straight line, and informally assess the model fit by judging the closeness of the data points to the line.
Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Mathematically proficient students make sense of quantities and their relationships in problem situations. They bring two complementary abilities to bear on problems involving quantitative relationships: the ability to decontextualize-to abstract a given situation and represent it symbolically and manipulate the representing symbols as if they have a life of their own, without necessarily attending to their referents-and the ability to contextualize, to pause as needed during the manipulation process in order to probe into the referents for the symbols involved. Quantitative reasoning entails habits of creating a coherent representation of the problem at hand; considering the units involved; attending to the meaning of quantities, not just how to compute them; and knowing and flexibly using different properties of operations and objects.
