Data Analysis and Representation
Reviewing measures of central tendency and spread, and creating various graphical representations of data.
Key Questions
- Compare the strengths and weaknesses of mean, median, and mode as measures of central tendency.
- Analyze how outliers affect different measures of spread (e.g., range vs. standard deviation).
- Construct an appropriate graphical representation for a given dataset, justifying the choice.

Planning templates for Mathematics
5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
