Central Tendencies: Mean, Median, Mode, and Range
It is important for students to be able to understand and interpret averages in different situations. Students must select the most appropriate form of average to use depending on the type of information that they are provided. Students are also expected to be able to display data using a variety of tables and graphs.
This is the foldable that students completed for notes.
Central Tendencies: Application of Averages
These are practice questions for students to demonstrate their understanding of when to use a specific type of average.
Central Tendencies: Poster Project
Students will select a topic of interest and collect data to complete measures of central tendencies.

Sometimes data is collected but there is one piece of data that does not fit with the rest. We must decide if it should be part of our calculations or not.
