Continue Mean and Median work

Welcome back!



I hear that it was a great camping trip. I am proud of you.

I know that you are all tired after camping then Halloween. So here is what we will do:

8:30-8:50 Get caught up, if you still are missing the assignments I mentioned on Thursday, go to Liz. Then Sam goes over "Exploring the Mean and Median."

8:50-9:05 Work assigned on Thursday and any missing work.

9:05-9:30 If the class, on average, is being good, a nice surprise. 




If you are done with all work, I don't want you to be bored. Nor do I want to "punish" you with extra work for moving quickly. So, from 8:30-9:05, feel free to:

Do you have your tickets... to the gun show? #flexin #doyouevenliftbro Please complete this to show you did your homework: Loading... So, let's talk about what makes this project hard: actually collecting data. It's not hard, but somehow, doing it every day is hard. It's easy to miss a day... then two... then all the sudden, you have missed a bunch, and it's scary and you don't want to think about it, so you don't do it. So we are going to preempt all that by putting some work in today to make it hard to forget. First, we will make a Google form. I started it for you, all you is copy it and add your 4 variables . Once you have that, you are going to use a cool feature of Google Sheets to have google email you this form every day.
