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.
