Class Topics: 09.08.14

In Common Core Math Six today, students completed the Chapter One Posttest.  Grades should be posted on GBW Monday evening or Tuesday morning.

Today's Learning Targets: The student will be able to...

• report the number of observations when given a data set.
• give quantitative measures of center and variability, as well as describe any overall pattern and any striking deviations from the overall pattern of the data.
• display numerical data in plots on a number line, including dot plots, histograms, and box plots.
• summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context, such as by giving quantitative measures of center and variability (interquartile range), as well as describing any overall pattern and any striking deviations from the overall pattern with references to the context in which the data were gathered.
• identify populations and samples when given a scenario.
• recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data related to the question and accounts for it in the answers.  

For Evening Practice, the student is expected to...

• complete Khan Skill: One Step Equation Intuition.  

One step equation intuition introduction: To find the value of a variable, you sometimes have to get it on one side of the equation alone. To do that, you'll need to do something to BOTH sides of the equation. Watch. We'll explain why we do this.
