Guessing Correlation Coefficient Game

State testing has thrown my instruction off as well as thence much lately.  I normally endeavor to hold out along all of my Algebra i classes inwards the same place, but that only hasn't been possible these past times few weeks.  

Algebra i is currently working amongst scatter plots as well as regression.  My sixth lx minutes degree finished super-early compared to my other classes, as well as thence I pulled upwards a game on the SMARTBoard that asked them to gauge the correlation coefficient of a scatter plot.  

Here's the link to the website I used.  The website loads iv dissimilar scatter plots. 

The iv scatterplots each accept the same iv choices, as well as thence it is essentially a matching activity.  I actually similar that the site tells you lot the historical adventure of mistake below each problem.  

I had students volunteer to come upwards up to the front end of the classroom as well as play along.  Each pupil would click their answers on the SMARTBoard as well as click "Check answers." 

If the pupil got all iv answers correct, he/she got to pick a slice of candy out of my prize bag.

My kids got actually into this activity.  Even the kids who weren't playing at the SMARTBoard were next along.  There were numerous times when a small-scale fry inwards the audience gave the mortal at the board a actually big hint.

I definitely desire to include this every bit business office of my psyche curriculum side past times side yr instead of a random filler activity!
