Easter Egg Hunt by Jocelyn Hurtado https://padlet.com/jthurtado27/6od928b310xb by: Jocelyn Hurtado en-us 2019-05-08 23:22:18 UTC 2025-04-14 17:15:51 UTC hello@padlet.com Standards: jthurtado27 https://padlet.com/jthurtado27/6od928b310xb/wish/358275150 CCSS.Math.Content.6.SP.A.2
Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a distribution which can be described by its center, spread, and overall shape.
CCSS.Math.Content.6.SP.A.3
Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how its values vary with a single number.
CCSS.Math.Content.6.SP.A.1
Recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data related to the question and accounts for it in the answers. For example, "How old am I?" is not a statistical question, but "How old are the students in my school?" is a statistical question because one anticipates variability in students' ages.

Quetelet was a “Belgian mathematician, astronomer, statistician, and sociologist known for his application of statistics and probability theory to social phenomena” (Britannica, 2019). Quetelet was one of the first scientist to use mean to represent the value of a population. ]]> 2019-05-08 23:32:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jthurtado27/6od928b310xb/wish/358276204 Why do you need to know this? jthurtado27 https://padlet.com/jthurtado27/6od928b310xb/wish/358276503 We need to know this because it is important to find out the average of numbers in the data set. It is important to know how to find the median in a list of numbers. It is important to find the mode in a data set to know if there are more than one of the same numbers.]]> 2019-05-08 23:34:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jthurtado27/6od928b310xb/wish/358276503 How will it help me in the future? jthurtado27 https://padlet.com/jthurtado27/6od928b310xb/wish/358276819 This will help us in the future as we continue to receive a higher education. When we become adults we can figure out our income, about how much bills will be, or how much of the same bill we received.]]> 2019-05-08 23:36:17 UTC https://padlet.com/jthurtado27/6od928b310xb/wish/358276819 Examples of situations where we can use mean, median, mode, and range. jthurtado27 https://padlet.com/jthurtado27/6od928b310xb/wish/358277117 If you become a weather broadcaster you need to use mean to find the average temperature for the week.
You can use mean when doing research.
When you want to know the median income you will be receiving.
If we want to know how old the majority of our classmates are.

Median: is the "middle" number of the data set
Mode: is the number that appears the "most" in the data set
Range: "difference" between lowest and highest number

Step 2: We will go outside to the playground to look for Easter eggs, each of you will pick out 4 eggs. DO NOT OPEN the eggs. 
Step 3: Once you have picked out your 4 eggs we will get in line to come back into the classroom.
Step 4: When we get back into the classroom, you will break into your groups.
Step 5: Then you will open the eggs and find a number in each egg.
Step 6: With all the numbers your group got from the eggs you will find the mean, median, mode, and range.
