the difference between the centers by expressing it as a multiple of a measure of variability.

Essential Question/Enduring Understanding:
EQ:
What types of conclusions can be drawn from data?
What is the center of a set of data and how can it be described?
How can variation be described within a data set?
How can data be used to compare different groups?
EU:
Informally assess the degree of visual overlap of two numerical data
distributions with similar variabilities, measuring the difference between
the centers by expressing it as a multiple of a measure of variability.
Use measures of center and measures of variability for numerical data

concepts)

WICOR:
Warm-up
Review Multiplying/Dividing Integers
(Since Accelerated students will be responsible for all of the 7
th
grade
content, warm-ups will be utilized to review and reteach with mini-lessons
content taught the previous year.)

Explore/Explain
(teaching content all students need to
know, understand and be able to do
as determined by unpacked standard)
WICOR:
Collect data from a sample population in order to predict information about a
population overall shape. (7.SP.3)
Understand that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its
values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how its values
vary with a single number.(7.SP.3)
Display numerical data in plots on a number line, including dot plots, histograms, and
box plots. (7.SP.3)
Use measures of center and variability to make inferences about a population based
on random sampling from that population.(7.SP.4)
Recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data related
to the question and accounts for it in the answers. (7.SP.4)
Enrich/Elaborate
(differentiation of process )

WICOR:
In the cluster Use random sampling to draw inferences about a population of Statistics
and Probability in Grade 7, students learn to draw inferences about one population from
a random sampling of that population. Students continue using these skills to draw
informal comparative inferences about two populations. Provide opportunities for

students to deal with small populations, determining measures of center and variability
for each population. Then have students compare those measures and make inferences.
The use of graphical representations of the same data (Grade 6) provides another
method for making comparisons. Students begin to develop understanding of the
benefits of each method by analyzing data with both methods.
When students study large populations, random sampling is used as a basis for the
population inference. This build on the skill developed in the Grade 7 cluster Use
random sampling to draw inferences about a population of Statistics and Probability.
Measures of center and variability are used to make inferences on each of the general
populations. Then the students have make comparisons for the two populations based
on those inferences.
