Grade 6 Math - Statistics Handouts, Song, Folding Notes - Common Core

Pass out ready-made statistics handouts to your students. There are SEVEN handouts in the packet:

Data Distribution Flow-Chart (Measures of Center and Spread)
Measures of Center Song (Your kids will never forget their mean, median, and mode)
Five Number Summary Handout (helps with box-and-whisker plots)
Measures of Center Folding Notes
Mean Absolute Deviation Folding Notes
Data Displays Folding Notes
Box-and-Whisker Plots Folding Notes


Connects to the new common core standards:

6.SP.1 Recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data related to the question and accounts for it in the answers.

6.SP.2 Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a distribution which can be described by its center, spread, and overall shape.
6.SP.3 Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how its values vary with a single number.
6.SP.4 Display numerical data in plots on a number line, including dot plots, histograms, and box plots.
6.SP.5 Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context.
