As an introduction to bivariate data analysis and scatter plots, students make sense of points on the graph. Students understand each axis represents one of the variables. Scatter plots are used to represent data and can be helpful in identifying any correlations that may exist.

This partially completed Core Resource supports students in selecting function models based on scatter plots and interpreting the fit of those models to the graphs.

Students spend this week interpreting bivariate data from the same context, analyzing the data both as categorical data and as quantitative data. From this, students can connect two-way frequency charts to purpose and scatter plots to different purposes. Students also deep dive into both of these representation types in other contexts.

This folder has a cover pages and six extended, scaffolded problems that are designed for an end-of-year trip to Six Flags Great America. It covers linear and quadratic functions and transformations. The problems refer specifically to the rides and experiences that students will have while at the park, while at the same time most of the problems can be finished at home or on the bus. Each problem has a rubric for standard-based scoring of problems. Feel free to download and change at will. Please don't change the originals.
