Algebra 1 Unveiled Part 4: Exploring Statistical Concepts

This course is designed to provide a coverage of the different concepts of Statistics. Students will analyze contextual situations, but in this unit, they focus on single variable data and then bivariate data. Students will apply previous mathematical experiences from Algebra 1 to make predictions and judgments based on data. 

Every class will follow a similar outline. We will start with a brief warm-up. These warm-ups are designed to get your child thinking about Concepts. After the warm up, the topic will be introduced. The class will follow an I do, We do, you do format. This means, I will review the first few examples. Then we will complete a few examples together and then we will end with a them completing examples independently. After the independent work the students and I will complete an informal assessment to solidify what has been reviewed during class. This could include playing a quick kahoot, jeopardy or online interactive game. 

There will be homework at the end of most classes and it will be due before the start of the next class. The purpose of the homework is to review the skills that were taught in class. They should post their answers in the learner section for feedback and review. Any questions that they may have can be asked before the start of the next class.  The topics are as follows:

Class 1 Measures of Center
Class 2 Representing Data
Class 3 Measures of Spread
Class 4 Mid Chapter Review
Class 5 Distributions of data
