Vocabulary Cards Illustrative Math, 8th: Associations in Data

These vocabulary words are the new terminology that eighth grade students are expected to produce in their own speaking and writing while working through the Associations in Data Unit in the Illustrative Mathematics curriculum. I like to use the vocabulary cards as individual anchor charts/resource for students. You could cut them into individual cards and staple or punch them and put on a book ring. If your students have access to devices, the vocabulary cards also come as a Google Slides presentation.

One of the most effective ways to improve test scores, writing, and reading comprehension is to improve vocabulary! Five fun vocabulary game ideas are included. An example using the Frayer model is also included, with a blank sheet for students to practice using this strategy.

Vocabulary words included (Unit 6):

1. categorical data

2. cluster

3. dependent variable

4. independent variable

5. linear association

6. negative association

7. numerical data

8. outlier

9. positive association

10. relative frequency

11. scatter plot

12. segmented bar graph
