Grade Level Sixth Grade
Learning Objective 6.15 The student will
a) describe mean as balance point; and
b) decide which measure of center is appropriate for
a given purpose.
Content
Activity The teacher will refresh the information that the
students learned in 5th grade SOL 5.16 including the
definition of the mean, median, mode, and range of
a given data set. The teacher will also teach the
students how to decide which measure of center or
measure of variation is the most appropriate for a
given data set. The students will complete the
computations of several given data sets at their
desks or on the IWB. Once the lesson is complete,
the students will use their classroom set iPads to
create a set of flash cards that they can use to study
for their SOL exam at the end of the course. Quizlet
allows the students to take a fill in the blank quiz,
play a matching game, play a trivia game, study their
flashcards, or take a test on the flashcards that they

have populated. During times where the students
have completed their classwork and need something
to do, they will be able to use their Quizlet

5.16 The student will
a) describe mean, median, and mode as measures of
center;
b) describe mean as fair share;
c) find the mean, median, mode, and range of a set of
data; and
d) describe the range of a set of data as a measure of
variation.
The objective of this lesson is to introduce the
concept of mean, median, mode, and range and how
to compute each for a given data set. The teacher
will use my previous lesson plan from the IWB
assignment to teacher the lesson. The quick
summary includes using the SMART Notebook
lesson to show the students how to compute each
of these values and to guide the students through
their Guided Learning process. Once the lesson has
concluded, the students move to group work, in
groups of four, using their classroom set iPads. Using
the application called Mindomo the students will
create a presentation showing what they have
learned during the lesson. The students will each
take a different measure of center or the range and
elaborate on what it is. They will also offer at least
three data sets and the steps to compute their given
measure of center or the measure of variation

class session plus one additional class period to
complete their presentation. All groups will be
graded as a project grade and the group whose turn
it is to present their group project will give the
presentation to the class as a group during the last
ten minutes of the second-class period. (Each class
presentation effort will be presented by a different
rotating group each week. There will be one group
presentation per week.)
