Topics Covered:

Decimal Operations (Adding, subtracting, dividing, multiplying)

Solving Equations (Solve for x)

Coordinate Plane (Quadrants, ordered pairs, axes)

Geometry (Angles, shapes)

Area & Perimeter (composite figures & simple shapes)

5 Locks (Google Form):

Letter lock

Number lock

Color lock

Mixed lock

Word lock

Answer Key Included!

45 min time limit is suggested. Groups of 2-3 sharing one device suggested.

4. Statistics Project

king for an assignment that applies all you've taught about statistics? Well, then look no further! This is ready to print/share and go!!

This document provides directions for students to follow to create their own statistics project. They are required to create a statistical question and then survey a population of 50 (fellow classmates, neighbors, etc.) Then, they must report their results in the form of a dot plot, box plot, frequency table, and histogram. After the data is represented visually, they must complete a written analysis that includes questions regarding their data.

Sample Questions for Written Analysis:

What are the results of your study? What is the mean of your data?

Do you believe your results are valid? Why or why not?

Were there any outliers that skewed your data one way or another? Did any outliers change your results?

Which graph best represents the results of your data? Why? Explain.

Were you surprised by your results or was the data what you expected? Explain.

What is the MAD (Mean Absolute Deviation) of your data? What does this value tell you about your results?

Next, students will create a presentation to give to the class. *Presentation can be optional.

Requirements of Presentation:

Create a visual display of your results to be shared with the class (Google Slides, Prezi, Powerpoint, Adobe Spark, Canva, etc.) Include the following in your presentation:

Title Slide: Your name and Statistical Question

Results:

The mean of your data

The mode of your data

The median of your data

The range of your data

Graphs:

Include the visual displays of your data that you previously created

Misc:

Any other information you feel is relevant to help explain your results

*Grading rubric is included.

*Completely editable to meet your needs.

*Students may work individually or in pairs/small groups.

*When item is purchased, a Word doc will appear with the link to the product.
