Survey a sample population to generate data that represents the total population.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Understand the concept of sample size as the total number of people asked a particular question from a population. [e.g., There are 200 people (total population) in school. 50 people were surveyed (sample) and asked who owned a pet. 20 people said they owned a pet.]
Representation:
  • Given a scenario, identify subsets within the population.
  • Use software to calculate an appropriate sample size for a given population.
General Information
Number: MAFS.7.SP.1.AP.1a
Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14
Cluster: Use random sampling to draw inferences about a population. (Supporting Cluster) : 

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
