Marking Period 4 includes 5 topics of study, listed below. This resource is for Topic 5. Topic 1, Section 1 Topic 1, Section 2 Topic 2 Understanding Area and Volume: Volume Surface Area Understanding Area and Volume: Area Topic 3 Multi‐Digit Computation (dividing whole numbers and decimals operations) Topic 4 Topic 5 Statistical Questions Analyzing Data Distributions Learning Goals by Common Core State Standard Topic Students will be able to... Analyzing Data Distributions 

Use measures of variability in addition to measures of center to summarize a set of data. Plot numerical data to create a concise way to represent the main characteristics of a set of data. Instructional videos in the hyperlinks above are meant to support C2.0 content, but may use vocabulary or strategies not emphasized by MCPS. The Common Core State Standards require a balance of three fundamental components that result in rigorous mathematics acquisition: deep conceptual understanding, procedural skill, and mathematical applications and modeling. RIGOR
Deep Conceptual Understanding Analyzing Data Distributions
Applications and Modeling Procedural
Skill
Students will use knowledge of measures of variability and center to summarize data. Students will build accuracy when constructing dot plots, box plots, and histograms. Students will create and use a variety of data displays to summarize a set of data.
