Core Objectives for this class:
DEMONSTRATE AN ABILITY TO ANALYZING DATA BY:
-creating a survey or experiment and organize the results.
-Calculating the mean, median, mode, and mid-range of data.
-Describing how an individual data point can affect a measure of central tendency.
-Analyzing and modeling measure of spread of data by using a box plot.
-Analyzing and modeling measure of frequency by using either a frequency chart, histogram, or stem and leaf.
-Constructing and interpreting scatter plots and describe patterns of clustering such as positive correlation, negative correlation, or no correlation.
APPLY BASIC CONCEPTS OF PROBABILITY BY:
-Conducting experiments to approximate the probability of simple events.
- representing the probability of an event as a fraction, precent, ratio, or decimal.
-Understanding the relationship between theoretical and experimental probability.
-Calculating the theoretical probability of an event.
-calculating and modeling combinations of probability by using sample space and tree diagrams.
-Understanding the concept of AND and OR probabilities.
IDENTIFYING TYPES OF DATA BY:
-Understanding that patterns of association can also be seen in bivariate categorical data by displaying frequencies and relative frequencies in a two-way table.
-Constructing and interpreting a two-way table summarizing data on two categorical variables collected from the same subjects. 
-Using relative frequencies calculated for rows of columns to describe possible association between the two variables.
- Understand the differences between quantitative and qualitative data.
- Understand data variability 

Before coming to Outschool, I worked at a community college for 4 years. During that time, my job consisted of instructing math classes and working with students below college level math and English. During this time, I saw a lot of students who were not prepared for the discovery and problem-solving element of math in college. Most students struggle with middle school math concepts in real-world applications. Without this foundation of math fluency and problem-solving student struggle with harder math concepts. As my child starts middle math the urgency of making sure she has a proper foundation of math became real. I decided to homeschool and joined this community of homeschoolers.
 I believe all students can succeed when they are taught in a style they understand. I would describe my style as Charlotte Mason or discovery, but I feel students need a mix of drill or classical method for foundational math concepts. If you believe that this style is how your learner understands, then I encourage you to sign up for my course.

OPTIONAL GRADED ASSIGNMENTS:
3 Quizzes
3 Projects/ Presentations
Quizzes are optional but if returned to teacher will be graded. There will also be a discussion question in the classroom that reflects the objectives learned in the discovery lab. I encourage students to do these discussion question as they are designed to work on reasoning skills needed for Algebra one and Geometry.
If you want or need an evaluation at the end of this class, then all quizzes and projects will need to be completed. Quizzes/Project can be scanned, or a photo can be taken on any smart phone and sent to me. 

Projects:
Students will be given 3 projects in this class which they will record a presentation for. Each project will test their ability to collect, display, and analyze different types of data. There will be parts of this project where students will have to work with their follow classmates.
One live session for each project will be schedule to answer any questions students may have about project and presenting the data. Examples will be done in class.
