Description

All 6 lessons are complete — sort real situations into ones that need data about one thing and ones that need data about two things measured together, collect continuous data for two variables from the same subjects, match a data set to the graph type that fits it best, learning what an infographic is and why real organizations use them, describe a relationship's strength: strong, weak, or none, and read graphs and tables to answer real questions, including ones that need a further step of reasoning.

Every lesson comes with a full teaching set: a lesson plan, a worksheet, homework, and a handout. The unit also includes 6 exit cards, 2 quizzes, a project, and an assignment.
