Help, My Data is Scattered!!!

This lesson provides activities for students to conceptually understand how to gather, organize, and interpret data using a scatter plot. They will be required to work cooperatively to complete certain tasks. They will use estimation strategies to complete a experiment that compares the the length of their hand to the number of centimeter cubes they can grab in order to make predictions about data with a larger sample size. Students will be assessed formally and informally throughout lesson via slide notes and data collection tool.
