Statistics Investigation Task - Linear Regression
For this report, students will look at current (2016) data that compares percent of adult smokers in each state vs. the heart disease mortality rate. Students are asked to graph the scatter and residual plots, check conditions, provide the LSR, and make a prediction using the equation. It is similar to one from my textbook, but it has been updated/changed to be appropriate for current students.

Circle Graphs using a Sport Survey
The objective of this lesson is to have the students collect, display analyze and interpret data from a sport survey. The students select their favorite sport and a worksheet is completed using the class data. The students convert the results into a fraction of the whole, then to a percent of the whole, then to the number of degrees necessary to draw the angles of a circle. The students create the circle graph from their angle measures. The whole class will then analyze, discuss and inter

8th Grade Statistics Project- Scatter Plots: Analyzing Asthma
I created this project as a fun way for my 8th grade students to apply their knowledge of scatter plots in a meaningful way. They had a lot of fun! Students pretend to be biostatisticians investigating why asthma rates in a city are skyrocketing. Students get to uncover the environmental cause of the increased rates of asthma and investigate how different factors are associated with asthma attacks. Students get lots of practice: - creating scatter plots using a table of data - selecting an appr
