Lesson 10: Estimating Lengths
• Explore, summarize, and interpret bivariate data using scatter plots, best ts lines, residuals and correlation coe cients.
• Predict information or draw conclusions from the data and its analysis. Lesson Narrative
The mathematical purpose of this lesson is for students to collect, summarize, interpret, and draw conclusions from bivariate data using scatter plots, best ts lines, residuals and correlation coe cients. This connects to previous work because students summarized, represented, interpreted, and drew conclusions from bivariate data using scatter plots, best t lines, residuals, and correlation coe cients. This connects to upcoming work because students will continue to investigate data using conditional probability and statistical experiments.
Technology isn't required for this lesson, but there are opportunities for students to choose to use appropriate technology to solve problems. We recommend making technology available. When student collect and analyze data to answer a question, they are making sense of problems and persevere in solving them (MP1).
Required Materials Copies of blackline master
Rulers
Tools for creating a visual display
Required Preparation
Technology is not required for this lesson, but there are opportunities for students to research their own data about sports teams and penalties if they have access to devices that can access the internet. If students do not have access to technology, copies of the blackline master are needed.
When students can research their own data, provide materials for them to create a visual display of their information and conclusions to the class.
Student Learning Goals
• Let’s collect some data and analyze it. 10.1 A Fossil Puzzle
