Define the mean, mode, and range of the data.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Identify the lowest to highest value in a data set given a number line and matching symbols.
  • Arrange data from lowest to highest.
  • Identify the representation (plastic snap cubes, wiki sticks) of the mode.
  • Use concrete materials to produce the mean (leveled plastic snap cubes).
  • Find the object or manipulative in a sequence that represents the middle.
Representation:
  • Identify the mode and the spread of the data using a line drawing of the distribution.
  • Calculate the mean using pre-slugged template of data points.
  • Understand the following concepts and vocabulary: mean, mode, spread of data, median.
General Information
Number: MAFS.6.SP.2.AP.5c
Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14
Cluster: Summarize and describe distributions. (Additional 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.
