The focus in Data About Us is data investigation. Students will learn to organize, display, analyze and interpret data. They will explore data directly related to their lives and make and interpret many different types of data displays such as line plots and coordinate graphs. Students will also learn to compute the mode, median, mean and range to describe the data and to make predictions.
