Median as a Measure of Center

In the second of seven statistics lessons, we begin with students engaging in a whole-class review of how to find the median. Then students are asked to think about the median more deeply through questioning. Much of this launch time will be conducted using a think-pair-share where students discuss the questions with a partner before reporting out to the class. During the explore time, students are expected to work individually, while also regularly checking in with a nearby partner. Following the exploration, students will share their answers and strategies with the class. CCSS: 6.SP.2
