What educators are saying
Thank you for the great resource! We were able to learn about and practice using measures of central tendency.
SO incredibly happy with this resource! I have a tricky group of 7/8's Friday afternoons and they LOVED this resource. We did one per class and I was super impressed by the level of engagement. I wish there were more scavenger hunts, my students really did enjoy them!

Description
This resource includes guided notes, practice worksheets and two scavenger hunts on the measures of central tendency. Students will have a deep understanding of the averages, range and outliers after you implement this unit. Below you will find a detailed description of the guided notes, worksheets and the scavenger hunts.
Guided Notes
Four half pages of notes provide the definition and two practice problems for the mean, median and mode. Students will fill in key words and will calculate the answers. This is an awesome quick reference for students who need clarification between the measures of central tendency. Information on range and outliers is also provided.
Practice Worksheets
The first practice worksheet includes a matching activity. Students will calculate the mean, median, mode and range. Students will match an answer to their calculations. A total of eight pairs will be completed. The second practice worksheet includes nine problems about mean, median, mode and range. Problem types include error analysis, multiple choice and comparisons of the measures of central tendency.
Scavenger Hunts
The first scavenger hunt includes twelve problems on mean, median, mode, range and outliers. Students will work with vocabulary definitions and a variety of average computations. The second twelve question, self-checking scavenger hunt increases in difficulty. Students will determine the missing value given the mean, median or mode.

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.
CCSS6.SP.B.5c
Giving quantitative measures of center (median and/or mean) and variability (interquartile range and/or mean absolute deviation), as well as describing any overall pattern and any striking deviations from the overall pattern with reference to the context in which the data were gathered.
