Mean, Median, Mode, and Range Grade: 5 Objective: Students will find the mean, median, mode, and

range of given data sets. Procedure: 1. Students will check their homework for correctness. Review any questions or comments they have. 2. Students complete Quick Check 17-2, questions one and two to review prior concept of Coordinate Grids. 3. Examples modeled and done as class Vocabulary: Mean/average- Sum of all numbers in a set divided by the total number in set. Median- Number in the middle of the data when the data is listed least to greatest. Mode- Number in the set that appears the most. Range- Difference between the greatest and least values in the data set. Song to help remember: (sing to tune of Row, Row, Row your boat) ModeModeModes the most. Average is the mean. Median Median Median Median always in between Example 1: Find Mean: 5, 4, 4, 9, 8 Example 3: Find Median: 5, 7, 5, 4, 6, 3, 5 Example 5: Find Mode: 14, 13, 14, 16, 14, 17, 19, 15 Example 7: Find Range: 21, 23, 21, 43, 32 Example 2: Fine Mean: 85, 70, 84, 91, 88, 92 Example 4: Find Median: 13, 14, 14, 16, 17, 19 Example 6: Find Median & Mode: 15, 21, 24, 20, 19, 18, 30, 36, 16, 22, 22 Example 8: Putting it all together: 16, 26, 15, 15, 19, 25, 26, 18, 25, 25

Exit Card The daily temperatures at noon for the week are 86, 78, 76, 87, 82, 74, 91, 77, 77, 90. Find the Mean, Mode, Median, Range

4. Instruct students to clear their desks.

5. Teacher will then pass out a Jelly Bean worksheet to each student. Explain that we will be finding mean, median, mode, and range using Jelly Beans. 6. Teach models an example of what they will do on board Model: Fill in chart for each color, use the data collected to find mean, median, mode, and range. Ask for student input to help complete chart. 7. Students will then begin their section of the worksheet (5-7 minutes) 7. Upon student completion, explain they will be working with their group to find the mean, median, mode, and range. Each student will have to find the totals for the group meaning they will have to work together. 8. Students will complete an Exit Card.
