Creating Box-and-Whisker Plots Step-by-Step Guide and More
This step-by-step guide was made for my students to learn the steps to creating a box and whisker plot.
I recommend that the students write on the guide as they work on a problem. The guide includes places for the students to place a check mark after they complete the step. This keeps the students on track. The guide is an excellent way for the students to slow down and read the directions, so the guide serves more than one purpose!

Experience
I taught mathematics for 19 years at urban middle and high schools in Michigan. I have taught summer bridge classes, remedial math classes, pre-algebra, algebra 1, algebra 2, pre-calculus, and geometry.
Teaching style
I vary the strategies often so that the lessons reach as many students as possible. Although I often use direct instruction for new material, I try to use student discovery and inductive reasoning as much as I can. I try to make learning fun, relevant and rewardingly successful. I use a lot of graphic organizers and other learning strategies while teaching to help scaffold the students to proficiency.

My own education history
Teaching was my third career and is by choice! I have a chemical engineering background, was a patent agent, and, now, am a secondary math teacher. I have a Masters in the Art of Teaching with an emphasis on Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment. Besides my certification in math, I am also certified to teach chemistry.
Additional biographical information
I taught mathematics for 19 years in urban districts in Michigan. I have taught mathematics for 6th through 12th grades. I enjoy planning and creating activities and exercises. Usually, I create activities, worksheets, etc. because I am not able to readily find what I am looking for online or in textbooks. My students range widely in skill and knowledge within each class, so I find that I create scaffolding-type exercises as well as assignments that involve higher-ordering thinking.
