We are learning about the MODE, MEDIAN and MEAN of a set of numbers! Firstly, we collected data on how many push ups each student could do in 30 seconds. There was a wide range of scores! From the scores, we calculated the mode, median and mean...but, we would like to hear of some more situations that would help us practise our calculations.Now it's your turn to help us!
Challenge our math-a-magical class with some great ideas to see how average we can really be!!! What scenarios could we use to practise our skills?
Our definitions:
mode: in a set of scores the mode is the score that occurs the most
median:a type of average-the middle value of an ordered set of values
mean:average of a number of different amounts
Thanks for reminding me about mode, median and mean. Very important when you are interpreting all sorts of data.Very useful understandings for future learning.
ReplyDeleteHave fun with your Maths.
