Bar Graphs, Stem-And-Leaf Graphs, Box-And-Whisker Plots, Together With Circle Graphs

My Algebra 1 classes late started their final unit of measurement of the year: Data Analysis in addition to Probability.  They volition accept their end-of-instruction seek on Apr 11th, thus the rush is on to destination the final unit of measurement in addition to do a comprehensive review earlier their commencement high-stakes high schoolhouse test.  Given that nosotros volition hold out missing a calendar week for boundary break, in addition to I'll hold out taking off 4 additional days for my marriage earlier then, it's super crucial for us to purpose every minute wisely.  Since it was Fri in addition to all of the basketball game players were gone, my students assumed I would plow over them a complimentary day.  Nope.  Can't nosotros merely await until Mon to start the novel chapter?  Nope.

My commencement science for this final unit of measurement is for students to hold out able to conduct an appropriate representation for a laid of data.  We are roofing 4 unlike representations: bar graphs, circle graphs, box-and-whisker plots, in addition to stem-and-leaf graphs.

I modified a similar foldable I had made for my stats flat that was at a much higher flat in addition to covered unlike graphs for my Algebra 1 kids.



This was my students' commencement exposure to distinguishing betwixt quantitative information in addition to categorical data.  In retrospect, I should conduct maintain prepared a sorting action similar I used amongst my statistics students.  Oh well...  Hindsight is 20/20.

Also, ignore the fact that I conduct maintain ane of the graphs inwards the plural shape in addition to all the others inwards the singular form.  I corrected it on the downloadable file.  This is what I larn for throwing this together at the final minute.

Bar graphs, circle graphs, in addition to stem-and-leaf graphs were review for almost all of my Algebra 1 students.  A few had seen box-and-whisker plots before, but none of my students knew how to larn close making one.

I decided the best practise nosotros could do was to come upwardly up amongst 4 survey questions in addition to do 4 unlike information representations.  I made these half-sheet forms for students to consummate in addition to and thus pose inwards a steal inwards their notebooks.

Bar Graphs:


Box-and-Whisker Plot:


Circle Graph:


Stem-and-Leaf Graph


This ended upwardly taking a flat current in addition to a one-half (50 infinitesimal periods) to complete.

My students struggled amongst coming upwardly amongst appropriate questions that would yield skillful data.  So, I had to continue telling them to come upwardly up amongst novel ideas.  For the stem-and-leaf graph, all 3 of my Algebra 1 classes independently decided to do "What is your favorite number?"  I flora this to hold out rattling interesting!
