Outcomes

6.SP.2

Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a distribution which can be described by its center (median, mean, and/or mode), spread (range interquartile range), and overall shape.

6.SP.3

Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how its values vary with a single number

6.SP.5

Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context, such as by:

6.SP.5c

c.Giving quantitative measures of center (median and/or mean) and variability (range and/or interquartile range), as well as describing any overall pattern and any striking deviations from the overall pattern with reference to the context in which the data was gathered.
