Mathematics | Grade : 6

Domain - Statistics and Probability

Cluster - Develop understanding of statistical variability.

[6.SP.A.3] - Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how its values vary with a single number.

    Successor Standards:

    • AI.S-ID.A.2
      Use statistics appropriate to the shape of the data distribution to compare center (median, mean) and spread (interquartile range, standard deviation) of two or more different data sets.*
    • MI.S-ID.A.2
      Use statistics appropriate to the shape of the data distribution to compare center (median, mean) and spread (interquartile range, standard deviation) of two or more different data sets.*

    Same Level Standards:

    • 6.SP.A.1
      Recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data related to the question and accounts for it in the answers. For example, "How old am I?" is not a statistical question, but "How old are the students in my school?" is a statistical question because one anticipates variability in students’ ages.
    • 6.SP.A.2
      Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a distribution, which can be described by its center (median, mean, and/or mode), spread (range, interquartile range), and overall shape.
    • 6.SP.B.5
      Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context, such as by.
