**FIND THE AVERAGE PERSON IN OUR CLASS**

LI - I am learning to use my statistic knowledge to find the average person in our class

SC - To be successful I will need to use some of the following:
 * tally chart
 * stem and leaf graph
 * bar graph
 * pie chart
 * pictogram
 * histogram
 * mean
 * median
 * mode
 * discrete data
 * continuous data
 * write 3 statements about each graph.

Your task is to find out who the average person in our is. You must **always** analyse your graphs and data, and make sure this analysis is evident.

To do this task you will be using **discrete data** and **only one continuous data.**

Below brainstorm as a group what discrete and continuous data you could use to help you find who the average person is in our class. Highlight all of your discrete data yellow, and continuous data green.

12/05/11 - Below are the LI intentions and SC that the class completed together.

LI: We are learning to display our data as a bar graph.

SC: •use discrete data •labels and titles are used •has a Y and X axis •has numbers on the Y axis •bars are seperate •has statements about the data and results •everything needs to be the same distance apart e.g. numbers up the side, the bars, the labels

LI: We are learning to display our data as a pie chart.

SC: •the degrees have to be accurate. •use protractor or compass when drawing the circle •use titles and labels. •may have a key •must have a perfectly round circle •has statements about the data and results

Create a tally chart, bar chart and pictogram for the data given. Write three statements about each diagram. [|IXL Year 7 Interpreting/Creating Pictograms] [|IXL Year 7 Interpreting/Creating Bar Charts]
