Unit # 4: Statistics 6th grade Statistics is the study of how to collect, organize, analyze, and interpret data

“We are rapidly entering a world where everything can be monitored and measured but the big problem is going to be the ability of humans to use, analyze, and make sense of the data.” The New York Times August 6, 2009

Essential Questions 1. How do we properly collect data? 2. How do we organize data? 3. How do we analyze data? 4. How do we interpret results?

To properly collect data, we must first ask a question that will result in multiple and varying answers rather than a single answer. A statistical question will result in variability in data and involve a real-world context.

Sort the following questions into two groups: statistical & non-statistical 1. How old is the oldest student in our class? 2. Are there more boys or girls in our class? 3. How old are the students in our class? 4. How long do students in this class spend on math homework each week? 5. How many students in our class like to watch scary movies? 6. What types of movies are preferred by students in our class?

Statistical or Non-Statistical 3. How old are the students in our class? 4. How long do students in this class spend on math homework each week? 6. What types of movies are preferred by students in our class? Non-Statistical 1. How old is the oldest student in our class? 2. Are there more boys or girls in our class? 5. How many students in our class like to watch scary movies?

Get into groups of 3 Decide whether the questions in your envelope are statistical or non-statistical. Discuss. If a question is non-statistical, discuss how you could rewrite it to be a statistical question that contains multiple and varying answers. http://grade6commoncoremath.wikispaces.hcpss.org/ Unit+5+Statistics+Probability 6.SP.1 Questions for Sorting

Pick one of the following topics 1. TV habits 2. Cell phone usage 3. Eating fruits and vegetables 4. Watching sports Write a statistical question and a non-statistical question about your topic.
