6th Grade Math Statistical Project Requirements

  You will complete a Statistical Project for your 4th nine weeks grade worth 100 points due Monday May 11th. You will complete components of this project weekly in a separate Statistical Project Nearpod that will be provided to you. Create a numerical question. You will collect data from your question and find the mean, median, mode, and range. Create a dot plot and a frequency table that appropriately displays the data from your statistical question. Create a histogram and a box & whisker plot that appropriately displays the data from your statistical question. See the next page for the rubric. From April 24th - May 8th you will need to go to join.nearpod.com and join with the class code listed below from your specific teacher. Please make sure to put your first and last name in after you type in the code. You will use the same code to access the one Project Nearpod from April 24th - May 8th.

Numerical Question.Mean, Median, Mode, & Range

Friday, April 24th

What is your Statistical Question?

Teacher Example: How many books, approximately, do each of my friends read in a year?

What is your Statistical Question?

How is your statistical question numerical?

Teacher Example: How many books, approximately, do each of my friends read in a year?

Teacher Example: My statistical question is numerical because the data I am collecting is collected by the amount of books read each year, which is a number.

How is your statistical question numerical?

List the data of your Statistical question from least to greatest and write an explanation. Teacher Example: How many books, approximately, do each of my friends read in a year?

{3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 7, 7, 8, 10, 18}

Teacher Example: I asked 10 of my friends this question. Three of my friends read 3 books a year. One of my friends reads 4 books a year. One of my friends reads 5 books a year. Two of my friends read 7 books a year. One of friends reads 8 books a year. One of my friends reads 10 books a year. One of my friends reads 18 books a year.

Using your data from your Statistical question create a Dot Plot. Histogram

And Box & Whisker plot

Friday, May 8th.

Using your data from your Statistical question create a Histogram. Teacher Example: How many books, approximately, do each of my friends read in a year? {3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 7, 7, 8, 10, 18}

Using your data from your Statistical question create a Histogram.

Using your data from your Statistical question create a Box and Whisker plot and write an explanation. Teacher Example:Minimum = 3, Lower Quartile = 3, Median = 6, Upper Quartile = 8, Maximum = 18.

{3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 7, 7, 8, 10, 18}
