Unit 1-Data Displays & Number Systems

In this unit, you will use what you know about data displays and numbers to apply it to "real-life" situations.

You will do this by:

• Interpreting graphical displays and tables
• Calculating "Data Landmarks" (range, maximum, minimum, mode, median, & mean)

In addition, you will also begin exploring "rational numbers," including fractions and negative numbers (also known as integers).

Unit 1 Targets:

#1) I can recognize, explain, and write a statistical question verses a non statistical question.

#2) I can find the "Data Landmarks" of a set of data.

#3) I can choose the appropriate landmark to summarize , or describe "What is typical?" about a data set based on the information that was given.

#4) I can interpret a graph, including a dot plot and a bar graph.

#5) I can interpret a persuasive graph.

#6) I can use the information from a graph to look for overall patterns, and to ask and answer questions.

#7) I can use a number line to order rational numbers and to find rational numbers that are located between numbers.

#8) I can plot an ordered pair of rational numbers on a coordinate grid.
