 6.SP.B.5 Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context 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. ]]> 2018-12-11 23:32:47 UTC https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313664299 History of Statistics akeoj9111 https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313664966 Rulers and kings needed information about land, agriculture, commerce, populations of their states to assess their military potential, their wealth, taxation and other aspects of government.

When looking up sports teams, you are most likely going to see the team or teams stats, AKA statistics. ]]> 2018-12-11 23:40:37 UTC https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313665125 akeoj9111 https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313665331 2018-12-11 23:42:28 UTC https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313665331 The Board akeoj9111 https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313666183 2018-12-11 23:50:03 UTC https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313666183 akeoj9111 https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313666380 2018-12-11 23:51:26 UTC https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313666380 Definition akeoj9111 https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313668040 statistics

We are going to be playing a game of Yahtzee and gathering data to see what the statistics of each category is for our class.  We will break up into groups of three to four and will be playing the first three games of the board. After all three games are finished, we will tally up what we all got. Like I got so many 2's, so many 3's, and so forth for each team player. As a group we will write what our statistics were for each team and then as a whole team we will make a dot line plot to see a visual of all the categories statistics. From this dot line plot we will see which category was most popular that the class rolled and which of the categories were least rolled. ]]> 2018-12-12 00:16:55 UTC https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/313669279 Dot Line Plot akeoj9111 https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/314388939 2018-12-13 18:11:25 UTC https://padlet.com/akeoj9111/8kycwxwcn9ms/wish/314388939
