5/2/2011 Tonight's Homework

I forgot to hand out planners this morning. So I'm going to post the homework assignment here.

Today in class the students collected data comparing two things (like right hand length vs. left hand length). They collected this data for each kid in the class.Their homework tonight is:

  1. Graph your data [centimeter paper].
  2. Describe your data:
    For each half of your graph (top and bottom) calculate the range, find the mode, and find the median [math dictionary].
  3. Analyze your data:
    Does your graph say the two things are different, or does the graph say the two things are the same? Give details about the range, the median, the mode, or the shape of the data to explain why you think they way you do.
