"Loved using this resource to review statistics and connect with students' excitement about the super bowl."

Description
America's big game takes place in February. This activity gives students an opportunity to use measures of central tendency, stem and leaf plots, box and whiskers plot, and their knowledge of probability to analyze the history of the Super Bowl.
Students will determine the typical score of a Super Bowl game, compare recent games to those in the past, and make predictions as to what is likely to happen this year.
The activity may be used in its entirety or broken down into smaller activities. No matter how you use it, though, your students can be engaged in mathematics in a Super way!

Great!
Students loved this
Thanks!
Thanks...This will be fun to use with my students.
I hope you enjoy! I've used this activity every year for close to 10 years or so and the kids really get a kick out of using mathematics in a fun way to learn about something they really like.
After the game is played this Sunday, you could extend the activity into the following week by having them think about how the measures of central tendency have/have not been affected by the addition of one more game.
