Box-and-Whisker Plots
Students will construct and interpret box-and-whisker plots to visualize data distribution and compare datasets.
Key Questions
- Analyze how a box-and-whisker plot visually represents the spread and skewness of a dataset.
- Compare multiple datasets using their box-and-whisker plots to identify differences in central tendency and spread.
- Construct a box-and-whisker plot from raw data and identify any outliers.

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.
