Mode: The Most Frequent Value
Students will identify the mode(s) of a dataset and understand its application for categorical data.
Key Questions
- Explain when the mode is the most appropriate measure of central tendency.
- Differentiate between a dataset with no mode, one mode, or multiple modes.
- Construct a dataset where the mode is clearly distinct from the mean and median.

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.
