Learning Target: Construct Histograms

Write down in your notebook the learning target (the title of the blog), and the warm up.

Warm Up: p. 101 #26  I will ask people to present their answers to the warm up daily. You may not pass, so be ready.

Goals: Finish collecting penny data and make histogram and complete p.75 TATS

HW: Start on p.76 and do #1-5

Reminder: First MIQ tomorrow. Be able to complete a problem like what’s in the investigation. In order to retake the MIQ, make sure you have completed everything from the ENTIRE row labeled Investigation 1 including all the investigation work and the MIQ practice problem. I may change this to first thing on Friday. Don’t count on it though.

Reflection: We made histograms from our dominate and non-dominate hand penny data, discussed known vocabulary, and brainstormed that if the data is in numerical order it is easier to analyze.

  2. The MIQ is a mini 1-2 problem quiz to see if you can complete problems similar to those in the MIQ. For p.76 #1 c and d, look on your vocab for definitions of center and spread. One of your hw assignments was to review your vocab and add the examples that we talked about today in class. We discussed definitions of center and of spread when we were talking about the non-dominate hand histogram. At this point, the answers to p.76 #1 c and d are estimations based on the definitions from your vocab, so don't worry about exact answers.
