  3. Activity 1 homework review and discussion Table discussion Discuss your write ups for the Day 3 homework tasks: • Compare your strategies with others at your table • Reflect on how you might revise your own solution and/or presentation

  4. Learning Intentions and Success Criteria We are learning to… • Describe how a given data set was collected. • Describe the center and variability from a frequency histogram. • Present a summary of a statistical investigation based on collected data.

  5. Learning Intentions and Success Criteria We will be successful when we can: • summarize a given data set from a graphic representation of the data. • pose statistical questions that involve collecting and interpreting data. • summarize the 4-step process of a statistical study from a given data set or from data collected.

  6. Activity 2 Lesson 20: Describing Center, Variability, and Shape of a data distribution from a graphic representation Review of a graphic Representation of a data distribution and how to estimate its center and variability from the graph EngageNY/Common Core Grade 6, Lesson 20

  7. Activity 2 Lesson 20: Describing Center, Variability, and Shape of a Data Distribution from a Graphic Representation Scientists captured yellow perch from a lake in this region. They recorded data on each fish, and then returned each fish to the lake. Consider the following histogram of data on the length (in centimeters) for a sample of yellow perch.

  8. Activity 2 Lesson 20: Describing Center, Variability, and Shape of a Data distribution from a Graphic representation • What data do you think researchers might want to collect about perch? • How many fish captured had a length of 20 to 25 centimeters? • Do you know how many fish had a length of 22 centimeters? Explain. • Why do you think scientists were concerned about what they saw in the histogram of the lengths of yellow perch?

  9. Activity 2 Lesson 20: Describing Center, Variability, and Shape of a Data distribution from a Graphic representation In small groups, complete exercises 1 – 11 of Lesson 20. After you have complete the exercises, discuss as a whole group what you expect would be some of the challenges with students completing these exercises. Discuss Example 2: What Would Better Distribution Look Like? (And, of course, why?)

  10. Activity 2 Lesson 20: Describing Center, Variability, and Shape of a Data distribution from a Graphic representation Complete exercises 12 - 17. Work in small groups. After you have complete the exercises, discuss as a whole group what you expect would be some of the challenges with students completing these exercises.

  11. Activity 2 Lesson 20: Describing Center, Variability, and Shape of a Data distribution from a Graphic representation Summary questions: • What is the problem with the yellow perch length distribution show in the opening histogram? • What is a typical yellow perch length? • What unit of measure do you sue to describe the variability of yellow perch lengths?

  12. Activity 2Lesson 20: Describing Center, Variability, and Shape of a Data distribution from a Graphic representation Review the following CCSSM grade 6 content standards: 6.SP.B.4 6.SP.B.5 • Where did you see these standards in the lesson you have just completed? • What would you look for in students’ work to suggest that they have made progress towards these standards? Reflecting on CCSSM standards aligned to lesson 20

  13. Activity 2 Lesson 20: Describing Center, Variability, and Shape of a Data distribution from a Graphic representation 6.SP.B.4: Display numerical data in plots on a number, including dot plots, histograms, and box plots. 6.SP.B.5: Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context, such as by: a. Reporting the number of observations. b. Describing the nature of the attribute under investigation, including how it was measured and its units of measurement. c. Giving quantitative measures of center (median and/or mean) and variability interquartile range and/or mean absolute deviation), as well as describing any overall pattern and any striking deviations from the overall pattern with reference to the context in which the data were gathered. d. Relating the choice of measures of center and variability to the shape of the data distribution and the context in which the data were gathered.

  14. Activity 2 Lesson 20: Describing Center, Variability, and Shape of a Data distribution from a Graphic representation Read MP4, the fourth CCSSM standard for mathematical practice. • Recalling that the standards for mathematical practice describe student behaviors, how did you engage in this practice as you completed the lesson? • What instructional moves or decisions did you see occurring during the lesson that encouraged greater engagement in MP4? • Are there other standards for mathematical practice that were prominent as you and your groups worked on the tasks? Reflecting on CCSSM Standards for Mathematical Practice aligned to lesson 20

  15. Activity 2 Lesson 20: Describing Center, Variability, and Shape of a Data distribution from a Graphic representation CCSSM MP.4 engageny MP.4 MP.4 Model with Mathematics . Students create graphs of data distributions. They select an appropriate measure of center to describe a typical data value for a given data distribution. They also calculate and interpret an appropriate measure of variability based on the shape of the data distribution. MP.4 Model with Mathematics Mathematically proficient students can apply the mathematics they know to solve problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace. In early grades, this might be as simple as writing an addition equation to describe a situation. In middle grades, a student might apply proportional reasoning to plan a school event or analyze a problem in the community. By high school, a student might use geometry to solve a design problem or use a function to describe how one quantity of interest depends on another. Mathematically proficient students who can apply what they know are comfortable making assumptions and approximations to simplify a complicated situation, realizing that these may need revision later. They are able to identify important quantities in a practical situation and map their relationships using such tools as diagrams, two-way tables, graphs, flowcharts and formulas. They can analyze those relationships mathematically to draw conclusions. They routinely interpret their mathematical results in the context of the situation and reflect on whether the results make sense, possibly improving the model if it has not served its purpose.

  17. Activity3Lessons 21-22: Summarizing a Data Distribution by Describing Center, Variability, and Shape Developing a poster presentation of a data distribution EngageNY/Common Core Grade 6, Lessons 21-22

  18. Activity 3 Lessons 21-22: Summarizing a Data Distribution by Describing Center, Variability, and Shape These two lessons conclude our work with 6th graders in statistics. They are also considered exploratory lessons. Statistics is about using data to answer questions. Recall how we started our work with data: Step 1: Pose a question that can be answered by data. Step 2: Determine a plan to collect the data. Step 3: Summarize the data with graphs and numerical summaries. Step 4: Answer the question (the statistical question) posed using the data and the summaries.

  19. Activity 3 Lessons 21-22: Summarizing a Data Distribution by Describing Center, Variability, and Shape Think of a statistical study that could be conducted around some of the following questions. • What is the typical rainfall for New York? • How many states has the typical participant in our class visited? • How any countries (other than the USA) has the typical participant in our class visited? • What is the typical number of years of teaching in our class? (This may be a more interesting data distribution than you think.) • How many text messages did a typical person in our class receive yesterday? • Other?

  20. Activity 3 Lessons 21-22: Summarizing a Data Distribution by Describing Center, Variability, and Shape As a class, we will collect data from our group on the questions selected. The data will be recorded on a the whiteboard. In small groups, use the templates provided in Lesson 21 and Lesson 22 do develop a statistical study of one of the questions. Develop a poster that summarizes your selected statistical study.

  21. Activity 3 Lessons 21-22: Summarizing a Data Distribution by Describing Center, Variability, and Shape Present your poster to the class. Outline how your poster addressed the 4-steps of a statistical study. We will also display the posters and have a short gallery walk.

  28. Activity 4 group presentation planning time and updates • During Week 2 of the institute, you will present (in groups of no more than three) one of the following Engage NY lessons: • Grade 6, Lessons 2, 3, 4, 5, 16 • Grade 8, Lesson 6 • Grade 9 (Algebra 1), Lessons, 3, 17 • For the rest of our time today, you should study these lessons, decide which one you wish to present, and find a group with which you will present.

  29. Activity 4 group presentation and updates • Update instructors on the progress of your lesson. Instructors will meet with each group and assist with your questions. Provide instructors a general outline of your planning and development of the selected lessons. A tentative schedule of presentations will be considered.

  30. Activity 5 Homework and Closing Remarks • Complete the problem set problems in grade 6, Lesson 20. • Extending the mathematics:Write a 3 to 5 sentence summary of the perch data that was presented in Lesson 20. Pretend you are a report for the Milwaukee Journal. Develop a headline that would go along with your short article. • Reflecting on teaching:Conducting a genuine statistical study with students in the middle to high school ages poses some challenges. Explain how you would develop a statistical study with your students that would involve collecting numerical data from other students. Be attentive in your plan to how you would supervise students’ process in collecting the data.
