'''TEACHING OVERVIEW: '''The first section of the MASSI provides remedial practice on identifying higher and lowest values in a data set, matching the source of values on x axis with the category of related data on the table, and analyzing a bar graph for greater/less/equal comparisons. 6<sup>t</sup><sup>h</sup> graders will learn to match statements for range, average (mean), and to find the mode and median when given a data set. This is a good review for your 7<sup>th</sup> and 8<sup>th</sup> graders. The 7<sup>th</sup> graders will be analyzing a bar graph to make comparative inferences. This is useful for your 6<sup>th</sup>and 8<sup>th</sup> graders to gain fluency with these concepts and practice numeracy skills. Then 8<sup>th</sup> graders work on analyzing a table with bivariate data to select an appropriate claim about the data. | '''TEACHING OVERVIEW: '''The first section of the MASSI provides remedial practice on identifying higher and lowest values in a data set, matching the source of values on x axis with the category of related data on the table, and analyzing a bar graph for greater/less/equal comparisons. 6<sup>t</sup><sup>h</sup> graders will learn to match statements for range, average (mean), and to find the mode and median when given a data set.

The different candidates are printed across the horizontal axis and the number of votes is on the vertical axis.

'''"Equal. An equal number of students in Mr. Smith's class and Ms. Carter's class voted for Kamaria. Now, let's look at Francis. It looks like 9 of Mr. Smith's students voted for Francis and 7 of Ms. Carter's students voted for Francis. This means that the number of Mr. Smith's students that voted for Francis is greater than the number of Ms. Carter's students who voted for Francis. Here is another question, "Did more of Mr. Smith's students or Ms. Carters vote in all?" In order to answer this I look at the graph overall.

Teaching Materials: Table for 8th grade election results; bar graph for 8th grade election results; greater than, less than, and equal response options; equation for range; equations for mean/average; double bar graph for 8th grade showing how different classes voted; bivariate table showing 8th grade election results and hours spent campaigning; response options for bivariate data
Other Materials: Tables for 7th and 6th grade election results; bar graphs for 7th and 6th grade election results; equation for range; equations for mean/average; double bar graphs for 7th and 6th grade showing how different classes voted, bivariate tables showing 7th and 6th grade election results and hours spent campaigning, response options for bivariate data
Worksheets: There are student worksheets to review each component of the lesson.
Assessments: Progress Monitoring for taking data during the lesson; Skills Test
TEACHING OVERVIEW: The first section of the MASSI provides remedial practice on identifying higher and lowest values in a data set, matching the source of values on x axis with the category of related data on the table, and analyzing a bar graph for greater/less/equal comparisons. 6th graders will learn to match statements for range, average (mean), and to find the mode and median when given a data set. This is a good review for your 7th and 8th graders. The 7th graders will be analyzing a bar graph to make comparative inferences. This is useful for your 6thand 8th graders to gain fluency with these concepts and practice numeracy skills. Then 8th graders work on analyzing a table with bivariate data to select an appropriate claim about the data.
[edit] SCRIPT FOR LESSON
BUILDING ESSENTIAL UNDERSTANDING: CONCEPT AND SYMBOLS: Identifying Highest and Lowest Value in a Data Set, Matching Source of Values on x-axis with the Category of Related Data on the Table (Skip this section for students who understand these relationships and can identify these concepts).
INTRODUCE THE ACTIVITY: "Today we are going to learn about elections for class president. An election is when people vote for a person they want to fill a position/job, like class president. The person with the most votes wins the election and becomes the class president. When people vote in an election, it's very important to analyze the results carefully to make sure the right person gets the job. There are a few ways to analyze the results of a vote, today we will work with tables and graphs. Today, we will be working on analyzing the election results for the each grade at Main Street Middle School."
INTRODUCE PROBLEM: "One of the first things we need to find when we look at election results data is the highest and lowest values. This shows us who got the most votes and who got the fewest votes. We can find the highest and lowest value by looking at a table of results or a bar graph."
MODEL THE PROCESS: Show students the bar graph and the table for 8th grade class president. Point to the corresponding locations as you read the following: "Here are the results for 8th grade class president. We can look at the results in a table and a bar graph. First, we need to see which person has the highest value, which means they got the most votes. When I look at the table, I am looking for the highest, or biggest, number. Look 30 is the biggest number on the table, Kamaria got 30 votes. When we look at the bar graph, it shows the data in a different way. Here I'm still looking for the highest, or biggest, bar. It shows the same thing, Kamaria's bar is the highest with 30 votes. Look, everyone else's bar is smaller/lower. Now I need to find the person who got the lowest value, which means they got the least amount of votes. Let's look at the 8th grade table again. It looks like there's a tie; both Francis and Leah got 16 votes, which is the smallest number on the table. When I look at the bar graph, it also shows the same thing. The lowest, or smallest, bars are for Francis and Leah, and everyone else's is higher."
STUDENT PRACTICE: Give each student the table and bar graph for 7th grade (and 6th grade afterwards). Now it's your turn. I want you to find the highest and lowest values for the 6th and 7th grade elections for class president. Use the CONSTANT TIME DELAY script to teach students to identify the highest and lowest value in the data set.

8. | Give student the table for 6th grade class president election results and say "Show me who has the lowest value; who got the fewest votes?" | Student identifies Clara (e.g., by stating her name or pointing to her data). |
INTRODUCE PROBLEM: Now that we've looked at the results in both a table and a bar graph, you know that the table and the bar graph show the same data in different ways. Let's make sure we know that they have the same data.
MODEL THE PROCESS: Show students the table and bar graph for 8th grade. Point to the corresponding sections while you read the following: "Watch me as I match the data on the table with the matching data on the bar graph for the 8th grade election results. I start by looking at the first name on the table, Kamaria. I see that she got 30 votes, now I find the Kamaria's name on the bar graph. I follow the bar graph up and across to the y axis and see that it also shows she got 30 votes. Now let's match up Francis. Here is Francis in the table with 16 votes, and here is Francis on the bar graph, which also shows 16 votes. I do the same thing for Isaac, the table shows he got 25 votes, now I look at the bar graph and find his name. When I look up at the bar, it also shows 25 votes. Next, I look at Ming on the table, 28 votes. I find Ming on the bar graph, and it also shows 28 votes. Last, I find Leah on the table, which shows 16 votes. Now I find Leah on the bar graph, and it matches with 16 votes!"
STUDENT PRACTICE: Give each student the table and bar graph for 7th grade (then 6th grade). "Now it's your turn. I want you to match the sources of data from the table to the x axis on the bar graph." Use the CONSTANT TIME DELAY script to teach students to match the sources of data to the bar graph.

BUILDING ESSENTIAL UNDERSTANDING: SYMBOLS: Analyzing a Bar Graph for Greater/Less/Equal Comparisons (Skip this section for students who understand these relationships and can identify these concepts).
INTRODUCE PROBLEM: "Now that we know that a bar graph is a different way to look at the data from a table, let's analyze the bar graphs to make some comparisons." Show students the response cards for greater than, less than, and equal to. "We are going to use some specific words to describe the data: greater than, less than, or equal to. Greater than means bigger or more. Less than means fewer or smaller. Equal means the same amount. Let's practice." Do multiple trials with each student, having them compare two numbers and identify the number that is greater, less, or equal if the two numbers are the same. Allow students to respond and correct any errors (not scored). If students are not familiar with the meaning of greater than, less than, and equal to, teach these concepts first (see Instructional Resource Guide for ideas).
MODEL THE PROCESS: Remove the tables, show students the 8th grade bar graph. "I'm going to analyze some of the data from the 8th grade election. Look at the bar graph. First, I'm going to look at Ming's votes. I want to see whose data is greater than Ming's. Look, Kamaria's bar for her data is higher than Ming's, so I know that Kamaria's votes are greater than Ming's. Now let's look at Isaac's data. I want to see whose data is less than Isaac's. There are two students whose data is smaller/lower than Isaac's. Both Francis and Leah have fewer votes than Isaac. I notice one other interesting thing about Francis and Leah's data, they are the same size on the bar graph, this means they got the same number of votes and their data are equal."
**Note: If students are having trouble seeing the comparisons, give them a ruler, pencil, or piece of paper to hold up to the bar graph to make a straight line across and compare.
STUDENT PRACTICE: Give each student the bar graph for 7th grade (then 6th grade). Now it's your turn. Look at the bar graph and answer these questions. Use LEAST INTRUSIVE PROMPTS script as needed to help students with each step.

This may be a good stopping point. Have the student have a classroom student election (they can vote on class president for a day or student of the day). Students can fill out ballots, turn them in, count out the results, and mark them on a table and create a bar graph. There is a generalization worksheet with this level. You can use this for additional guided practice or to send home as homework.

[edit] 6th BUILD A GRADE ALIGNED COMPONENT: Given a Data Set, Matching Statements for Range, Average (Mean), and Finding Mode and Median
[edit] 7th & 8th SYMBOL USE: Matching Statements for Range, Average (Mean), and Finding Mode and Median
INTRODUCE THE ACTVITY/PROBLEM: "Remember before when we looked at the data for the Main Street Middle School class president elections? Now we are going to analyze that data in more detail and learn some new ways to talk about the data, like how to find the range, the average, the mode, and the median." For this portion of the lesson, students will need the tables reporting data from each grade level, but they will NOT use the bar graphs.
**Note: Teachers may want to have students order the data from least to greatest first. Teachers can use a number line or 100 chart if students need a visual.
MODEL THE PROCESS: You will need the "Equation for Range" template. "First we will work on how to find the range. Range is the difference between the highest and lowest values in a data set. Let's all say it together. Range is the difference between the highest and lowest values in a data set." Students who are unable to respond vocally can use a voice output device to respond. Show students the 8th grade results table. "Here is an equation to show how to calculate range. It says highest value minus lowest value equals range. Now look at the data for the 8th grade class president. Watch me as I fill out the equation and calculate the range. First, I find the highest value, 30, and I write it here. Then I find the lowest value, 16, and I write it here. Now I solve the equation to find the value, 14."
STUDENT PRACTICE: Give each student the 7th grade election results table (and then the 6th grade) and the "Equation for Range" template. "Now it's your turn. Look at the table and use it to calculate the range." Use LEAST INTRUSIVE PROMPTS script as needed to help students with each step.
**Note: Have the students write the numbers in the formula, but do not score writing ability. If students are unable to write the number, they can use number stamps or direct the teacher to write it for them.
**Note: In the following problem, students are required to subtract. If students are unable to subtract independently, it is ok to provide them with a calculator or other visual, however they must do the work independently. Be consistent with the type of accommodation provided here.

40. | Wait for students to independently initiate this step or say "Now solve for the range." | Student subtracts 35-19 to get the correct answer (11) and writes it in the equation. |
MODEL THE PROCESS: You will need the "Equation for mean/average" template. "Now we need to learn to calculate the average or mean. The average/mean is one way to describe the middle of a data set. The average is the sum of the data divided by the total number of values. Let's say that together. The average is the sum of the data divided by the total number of values." Students who are unable to respond vocally can use a voice output device to respond. Show students the 8th grade results table. "Now let me show you what that means with the 8th grade data set. We will use our calculator to calculate our answer. First, I add up all of the data to get the sum. So for 8th grade I add 30 + 16 + 25 + 28 + 16 = 115. Next I need to divide 115 by the total number of values. To find that number I just count the number of students who ran for election, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. We have 5 total values. Now I divide 115 ÷ 5 = 23. The mean or average of the 8th grade data is 23."
STUDENT PRACTICE: Give each student the 7th grade election results table (and then the 6th grade), the "Equation for mean/average" template, and a calculator. Now it's your turn. Look at the table and use it to calculate the average/mean. Use LEAST INTRUSIVE PROMPTS script as needed to help students with each step.

MODEL THE PROCESS: "Next we are going to learn about how to find the mode of the data. The mode is the number that appears the most often in a data set. Say it with me. The mode is the number that appears the most often in a data set." Students who are unable to respond vocally can use a voice output device to respond. Show students the 8th grade results table. "Let's look at the 8th grade results again. I'm looking to see which number I see the most. I only see 30 one time, I see 16 two times, I see 25 one time, and 28 one time. That means the mode is 16 because it appears the most in the data. We see 16 two times."

[edit] 7th BUILD A GRADE ALIGNED COMPONENT: Analyzing a Bar Graph to Make Comparative Inferences
[edit] 8th SYMBOL USE: Analyzing a Bar Graph to Make Comparative Inferences
INTRODUCE THE ACTVITY/PROBLEM: Now students are going to analyze bar graphs to make comparative inferences about the data when it is further broken down (e.g., girls vs. boys votes). "Remember before we looked at the bar graphs showing the different number of votes each student got. Now we are going to look at new graphs showing the same data, but breaking it down by how students in different classes voted to make comparative inferences."
MODEL THE PROCESS: Show students the bar graph for 8th grade election results broken down by classes (double bar graph). "Look at this graph. Mr. Smith's students' votes are shown in blue, and Ms. Carter's students' votes are shown in red. The different candidates are printed across the horizontal axis and the number of votes is on the vertical axis. Let's look at Kamaria. 15 of Mr. Smith's students voted for Kamaria and 15 of Ms. Carter's students voted for Kamaria. Do you remember the word for this?" Give students a chance to respond. "Equal. An equal number of students in Mr. Smith's class and Ms. Carter's class voted for Kamaria. Now, let's look at Francis. It looks like 9 of Mr. Smith's students voted for Francis and 7 of Ms. Carter's students voted for Francis. This means that the number of Mr. Smith's students that voted for Francis is greater than the number of Ms. Carter's students who voted for Francis. Here is another question, "Did more of Mr. Smith's students or Ms. Carters vote in all?" In order to answer this I look at the graph overall. I see that more of Mr. Smith's students voted for all candidates except Kamaria, and remember the same number of Mr. Smith's students and Ms. Carter's students voted for Kamaria. This means that overall more of Mr. Smith's students voted."
**Note: If students need more support, you can have students add all the votes together for each class.
STUDENT PRACTICE: Give each student the bar graph for 7th grade showing the votes divided by class (and 6th grade afterwards). "Now it's your turn. Look at the bar graphs and answer these questions.

[edit] 8th BUILD A GRADE ALIGNED COMPONENT: Analyzing a Table with Bivariate Data to Select an Appropriate Claim about the Data
INTRODUCE ACTIVITY/PROBLEM: "Now we are going to look at the results in one last way. We are going to look at data in a table that shows the candidates, the number of votes they got, and the number of hours they spent campaigning. We are going to look at the number of votes each candidate got and compare with the number of hours they campaigned to see if there is a relationship. When we are looking for a relationship, we need to decide which statement is accurate: (1) if the greater number of hours spent campaigning resulted in more votes for the candidate, (2) the greater number of hours spent campaigning resulted in fewer votes for the candidate, or (3) if there is no relationship between the number of hours spent campaigning and the votes received for each candidate."
MODEL THE PROCESS: Show students the Bivariate Data table showing 8th grade results for votes and hours spent campaigning. "I am going to look at this table and see if there's a relationship between the number of hours spent campaigning and the number of votes each candidate received. This table shows the candidates here," (point to left column) "the number of votes they received," (point to middle column) "and the hours spent campaigning" (point to right column). "Also, this table shows the candidates in order with the candidate with the fewest votes at the top," (point) "moving down to the candidate with the most votes on the bottom" (point). "When I look in the hours column, I can see that as the candidate gets more votes, they also campaigned for more hours. Look the number of hours gets bigger as we move down the table. So, to describe this relationship, I would say that more hours spent campaigning resulted in more votes for the candidate. If the numbers had gotten smaller as you went down the column, we would say the more hours spent campaigning resulted in fewer votes for the candidate. If the numbers did not get bigger or smaller, or the numbers got both bigger and smaller without a pattern, then we say there is no relationship between the hours spent campaigning and the votes received for each candidate."
**Note: some students may have difficulty understanding the relationship by simply looking at the table. For these students, it may be helpful to graph the results on a bivariate plot graph so they can see the pattern visually.
STUDENT PRACTICE: Give each student the table showing 7th grade results for votes and hours spent campaigning (and 6th grade later). Response options are provided in materials if needed. "Now it's your turn. Look at the data in this table, look specifically at the hours spent campaigning and analyze the results." Use LEAST INTRUSIVE PROMPTS script as needed to help students with each step.
CHECK AND SCORE
Step | Teacher Says/Does | Student Response |
65. | Student has the 7th grade results table. "Is there a relationship between the number of hours spent campaigning and the number of votes each candidate received?" Can give response options if needed. | Student states that there is no relationship between the number of hours spent campaigning and the greater number of votes received. |
66. | Student has the 6th grade results table. "Let's look at the 6th grade data. Is there a relationship between the number of hours spent campaigning and the number of votes each candidate received?" Can give response options if needed. | Student states that the greater number of hours spent campaigning results in greater number of votes received. |
This is the end of the lesson. Have a mock classroom student election (they can vote on class president for a day or student of the day). Students can fill out ballots, turn them in, count out the results, record results in a table, and create a bar graph. They can each campaign in the days ahead and track how many minutes they spent campaigning. They can analyze the relationship between minutes spent campaigning and votes received. There is a generalization worksheet with this level. You can use this for additional guided practice or to send home as homework.
INDEPENDENT PRACTICE: Data Analysis Skills Test | Teacher Says/Does | Student Response | Error Correction |
Give each student the 'Data Analysis Skills Test 4'. Read directions for each problem and have student select response. Record whether response is correct or incorrect. | Only provide praise for completing assessment (if student needs encouragement). Do not provide specific praise for correct answers while student is testing. | Once the student has completed the test, review missed problems with the student. |
Troubleshooting and Data-Based Decision Making for Data Analysis Skills Test:
If student is unable to complete any items on the data analysis test independently and correctly, go back and teach one problem step-by-step.
[edit] MASSI CULMINATING ACTIVITY
Have the student have a classroom or grade level student election (they can vote on class president for a day or student of the day). Students can fill out ballots, turn them in, count out the results, record results in a table, and create a bar graph. They can each campaign in the days ahead and track how many minutes they spent campaigning. They can analyze the relationship between minutes spent campaigning and votes received. They can also analyze the results based on how different classes vote. Students may also go campaign in another class and graph their voting results.
BUILD TOWARDS FULL GRADE LEVEL COMPETENCE
Here are ideas to build competence towards the full grade level competence using this same activity. See the unit plan and talk with the general education teacher for more ideas.
Component | Activity | What Student Does | Generalization/ Fluency |
Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context. | Present students with a data set. Have students calculate range, mean, median, and mode without using equation templates. Practice finding median of a data set with an even number of items, so students have to average middle numbers and find median. | Students calculate range, mean, median, and mode without using equation templates. | Present data in a variety of formats. Use data sets that vary in size. |
Use measures of center and measures of variability for numerical data from random samples to draw informal comparative inferences about two populations. | Present students with data sets and double bar graphs that have at least two populations and have them calculate measure of center (mean, median, and mode) and measures of variability (range). They can then make informal comparative inferences between two populations. | Students calculate mean, median, mode, and range, and then make informal comparative inferences between two populations. | Present data in a variety of formats (table and double bar graph). Use data sets that vary in size. |
Understand that patterns of association can also be seen in bivariate categorical data by displaying frequencies and relative frequencies in a two-way table. Construct and interpret a two-way table summarizing data on two categorical variables collected from the same subjects. Use relative frequencies calculated for rows or columns to describe possible association between the two variables. | Have students look at bivariate data, put it in order based on one of the values, and then enter the data in a table. Then, have students make associations between the data and support these associations using frequency data as support. | Students look at bivariate data, put it in order based on one of the values, and then enter the data in a table. Then, have students make claims between the data and support these claims using frequency data as support (see bivariate response options for example). | Present data in a variety of formats. Use data sets that vary in size. |
