STEM Challenge Math Activity: Percent Change and Statistics
Anxious to try a STEM challenge but worried about time? This one will students a chance to use mean, median, range, interquartile range, MAD, making dot plots and finding percent change based on the data from a STEM challenge. Students complete the STEM challenge twice, and then use the results to calculate percent change and do statistical analysis. This resource will let you "focus on the M in STEM"! Resource also includes a poster of the engineering design process (color and black/white)

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
