Grade 5 Math Unit 9 Data and Probability
Unit 9 Data and Probability
Content Emphasis/ Big Ideas
In this unit, given a practical problem, students represent, interpret and compare data represented in line plots and stem-and-leaf plots. Students also use measures of center and variation to aid in the analysis and interpretation of data presented in practical contexts. Furthermore, students determine the probability of an outcome by using the Fundamental Counting Principle or by constructing a sample space.
Standards:
- MTH.G5.15 Determine the probability of an outcome by constructing a sample space or using the Fundamental (Basic) Counting Principle
- MTH.G5.16.a Represent data in line plots and stem-and-leaf plots
- MTH.G5.16.b Interpret data represented in line plots and stem-and-leaf plots
- MTH.G5.16.c Compare data represented in a line plot with the same data represented in a stem-and-leaf plot)
- MTH.G5.17.a Describe mean, median, and mode as measures of center MTH.G5.17.b Describe mean as fair share
- MTH.G5.17.c Describe the range of a set of data as a measure of spread MTH.G5.17.d Determine the mean, median, mode, and range of a set of data
