What affects do different drugs have on spiders and their abilities to make their webs? Students look at the area of different webs to predict an answer to this question. The raw data is available for this experiment.

Does the temperature affect plants flowering? Use this data to determine the answer to this question while looking for patterns and making predictions. Students can interact with the raw data from this experiement.

Practice finding the mean while looking for an answer to the question, "Is there any evidence that mudsnails are causing the decline in fish populations through their effects on invertebrate populations?"

Does the diameter of a tree determine how suseptable it is to a fungus? Use this data to create a scatterplot and see if there is any correlation.

Discuss independent and independent variables as you learn about relationships between coral, algae and urchins. Look for patterns and determine if there are any relationships between these different sea creatures by reading or creating your own graphical representations.

Students explore the concept of the mean as they examine and compare scores for various sports events.

This data analysis activity requires students to read and interpret six written or graphical representations of data. Students must determine which graphs and analysis belong together. The data representations used include a pictograph, a circle graph, a frequency chart, a bar graph, and two written analyses including the terms mode, median, and mean for each data set. Included with the activity are teacher's notes, a hint, and the solution.

This is the first unit for the 7th-grade statistics lesson to cover Mean, Median, Mode, and Range. It covers Utah Core Math Standards 7. S.P.1-2:  Use random sampling to draw inferences about a population

Open Middle tasks provide opportunities for student to approach a mathematical task using different strategies and representations. They can be used as a warm-up/closing activity, as a formative assessment, or to facilitate discourse and discussion and get insite into student thinking and problem solving. These tasks provide a great opportunity for student to engage with the Standards for Mathematical Practice.
