Knowledge Application Project reminder: only one question
A yes or no question is not a statistical question (because it doesn't anticipate enough variability). Also, you can't put yes and no on a number line (so it won't work for the three data displays we learned)
A question like, "What color is your hair?" is a statistical question but you can't put hair color on a number line (and all three of our data displays use a number line).
If you want to use a dot plot to get the data for making your box and whisker plot, remember that each x (or dot) is a data point. Be sure to write them all down!
Use the lines that are provided to create the spacing on your number lines (don't make lines between the given lines)
When making your histogram, be sure your buckets hold more than one number (Your dot plot already goes by 1's)
Finish your Unit 1 Graphic Organizer (Due tomorrow) and your "What's the story at our school?" Knowledge Application Project (Due Friday)
Both activities are designed to help you prepare for tomorrow's test.
If you need help, get help. If someone else needs help, give help.
Prepare
Due 9/3
Tonight: spend at least 15 minutes reading over your graphic organizer. If something on it confuses you, look back at your notes, my notes, Google it, or ask a friend. Then make changes and update your graphic organizer. Be sure to bring it tomorrow for the test.
