Students are working on their surveys, but once they finish and administer their surveys, students have to analyze the results. We have discussed a little bit but it has been a bit scattered so today we pulled things together and discussed it as a whole. We made connections to try to consolidate understanding of all the different terms. (For example, the standard deviation tells us how meaningful the "mean" value actually is - how closely packed the data is; this is similar to the correlation coefficient when doing a linear regression.)

Students aren't really skipping, but they are away a lot for sports, class trips, camp etc. This means that I may teach a lesson but have to re-teach it later. I thought this was a really good one - and it was for the students who were there. However, I had to go over all this again the next week. Anyway, the students did do some work to practice:
