Welcome & IntroductionsGo over homework from Workshop ITime Management in a 40 minute/Block ScheduleActivityData Analysis: Real World ProjectsQuestions, Comments, & Discussion

Hello, my name is___ & my buddy is ___. Since our last session, we connected online and discussed ___

Today, we will continue showing different ways to differentiate in the classroom

environment. Remember, we can differentiate

By contentBy processBy product and/or By climate.

We will present two forms of lesson plans; a Detailed Lesson Plan and a Simple Lesson

plan.

Both forms of lesson plans can be used in any classroom setting.

However, the Detailed Lesson Plan works well in a block setting where time is allotted for

activities, small group and whole group discussions.

The lesson plan templates used are from our district adopted textbook, Holt and teacher

created.

For today’s lesson, we will focus on both math & technology standards

9.5 ACreate, interpret and use graphical displays and statistical measures to describe data; e.g., box-and-whisker plots, histograms, scatter plots, measures of center and variability.

8-10 AFormulate a problem or mathematical model in response to a specific need or situation, determine information required to solve the problem, choose a method for obtaining this information, and use limits for acceptable solution.

9.3 BIdentify, select and apply appropriate technology tools and resources to produce creative works and to construct technology enhanced models

9.3 B.2Demonstrate proficiency in all productivity tools (e.g., word processing, spreadsheet, database, desktop publishing).

Unique Challenges in Teaching

Undergraduate Statistics

A statistic instructor faces 4 major challenges when teaching basic statistical concepts.

1.Motivating students to study material they think is uninteresting2.Handling Math Anxiety3.Dealing with Performance Extremes4.Making the Learning Memorable

For motivating students to study material they think is uninteresting

the authors states

Instructors need to make deliberate efforts to enhance motivation by the following:

• Active Learning; having fun and have students generate their own data

• Mastery Learning; achieve mastery of the material rather than just passing an exam

Handling Math Anxiety the authors states

This is an emotional state of dread of future math related activities. Two possible methods of reducing math anxiety are:

• Tutoring; focus on basic math skills & exposure to the material that makes them anxious

• Relieving Exam Pressure; provide unlimited time & allowing repeat examinations

Dealing with Performance Extremes the authors states

Performance extremes in statistics seem larger than in other courses.

It is difficult to address the remedial needs of the low achievers while challenging the high achievers.

Dealing with Performance Extremes the authors states cont.

Recommendations include the following:

• Peer Tutoring; will enhance learning for both high and low achievers

• Concrete Presentation; provide students with concrete concepts rather than abstract concepts

• Proactive Approach; reach both strong and weak students…this may be time consuming for instructors, but a teaching assistant can help

Making the Learning Memorable the authors states

Instructors note that students remember little of what they learned in statistics. If instructors intentionally infused statistics throughout the curriculum, would students show good retention. With this stated, there are ways to increase retention:

Making the Learning Memorable the authors states cont.

• Achieving Initial Understanding; use a distinct organizational scheme of course materials

• Providing Memory Cues; stories, visual images, cartoon, videos, & demonstrations

STANDARDS: Data Analysis & Probability Mathematical Process

OBJECTIVE: The students will be able to: 1. Define and identify a box-and-whisker plot 2. Create a box-and-whisker plot 3. Display and analyze data in a box-and-whisker plot

WARM UP: 1. Go over questions from last night homework 2. Answer the following questions

a) Arrange the data in order from least to greatest; 26, 17, 21, 23, 19, 28, 17, 20, 29 b) Find the mean, median and mode for the data above

PROCEDURE: BOX-AND-WHISKER PLOT A Box-and-Whisker Plots uses a number line to show the distribution of a set of data

SIMPLE LESSON PLAN TEMPLATE

Teacher: Ms. Kight Grade: 9th

Subject: Math Time Allot: 40 min

Lesson Title:

PROCEDURE: STEPS FOR MAKING A BOX-AND-WHISKER PLOT 1. Arrange the data in order from least to greatest (stem-and-leaf plot). 2. Find the median of the data 3. Find the lower quartile of the data. 4. Find the upper quartile of the data. 5. Find the interquartile range of the data. 6. Draw a number line that ranges from the least to the greatest data values in your data. 7. Graph (PLACE A DOT) above the least value of your data, the lower quartile, the

median, the upper quartile and the greatest value of your data by plotting a dot above each number on your number line.

8. Make a rectangular box beginning at the lower quartile and ending at the upper quartile.

9. Inside the rectangle, draw a line down (vertical line) through the median. 10. Then draw a whisker(a horizontal line) beginning at the least value to the 1st quartile

point on the box and then draw another whisker beginning at the greatest value to the 3rd quartile on the box

Lesson Description:

PROCEDURE: Interquartile Range (IQR) = 17, 17, 19, 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29 Is the difference between the Upper Quartile and the Lower Quartile This tells how large the spread of data around the median. 26 + 28 minus 17 + 19 2 2 Upper quartile = 27 Lower quartile =18 Interquartile Range = 27 – 18 Interquartile Range = 9

GUIDED PRACTICE:

1. What statement can be made about the data, using the graph alone? a) The range of the data is 11 b) The median of the data is 21 c) Twenty-five percent of the data is less than 17 d) Fifty percent of the data is more than 27

2. Are there any Outliers? Explain why or why not.

3. What statement can be made about the data, using the graph alone?

a) 75% of the data is greater than 27 b) 75% of the data is between 21 and 29 c) 50% of the data is between 18 and 27 d) 25% of the data is less than 17

SIMPLE LESSON PLAN TEMPLATE

PROCEDURE: Outlier: is a data value that is far removed from the rest of the data.

A value less than the 1st quartile – 1.5(IQR) or

greater than 3rd quartile + 1.5 (IQR) is considered to be an outlier 9 - 18 = -9 IQR – 1st Quartile -9(1.5) = -13.5 Ans(1.5) 18 - -13.5 = 31.5 1st Quartile – (ans) 27 + - 13.5 = 13.5 3rd Quartile + (ans) Upper quartile = 27 Lower quartile =18

We continued to focus on differentiating instruction by content, process, product and climate

We visited the different ways to create lesson plans to ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed with strategies designed to reach students of all learning styles and skill levels implementing differentiated instruction

We have viewed topics in the journal article which outlines ways to teach statistical data to students effectively

We have identified where we can find instructional resources for the range of learning styles in our classroom

We have identified modified tests, quizzes and worksheets

We have gone over calculator keystrokes for creating one and multiple box-and-whisker plots on the same grid

We came together once again to gain professional knowledge of our content area and continue to network within our district to improve student learning.

E-mail me, Endora Kight, if you would like to have the calculator instructions for creating a box-and-whisker plot.

E-mail me, Endora Kight, if you may have any questions regarding anything we have covered today
