In This Purposeful Practice…
Students select a graphical representation to display continuous data and determine a single value to represent a data set.
Intentionality…
The purpose of the Day 4 activities is to reinforce key concepts from Day 3. Students will engage in a math talk and will have an opportunity to complete independent purposeful practice. The math talk and purposeful practice serve to develop a deeper understanding of the following big ideas.
- There are different types of data;
- Data is often characterized as continuous or discrete;
- Continuous data is measurable and can take any value (within a range);
- The slope of a line in a continuous line graph can help us draw conclusions;
- Average speed is the total distance divided by time through partitive division.
