=Lesson Planner= Conceptual Lens: Impact Instructor: Ms. Killam Content: Mathematics Grade Level: 8th grade Time Frame:** **2-3 weeks** 1.Students will understand that the mean, median, mode, range, and quartiles are great tools to understand the impact of lives affected by the Holocaust. || **Critical Content** 1. **Terms** - probability, population, migration, percents, ratios 2. **Terms** - mean, median, mode, quartiles, outliers 3. **Terms** - unknown variables 4. **Terms** -stem and leaf plots, box and whisker plots, histograms 5. **Terms** - equations, graphs 6. **Terms** - data, Holocaust 1. Written predictions using blogs 2. Tables, graphs, plots using laptops 3. Written conclusions using blogs 4. Steps in solving equation and final answer using discussion page on class wiki 5. Find and discuss alternate representation of data 6. Portfolio with all 4 content areas || 1. How do you use the mean, median, mode, range, and quartiles to solve problems involving raw data and information from the Holocaust? || **Skills** 1. Predict outcomes by using raw data and information. 2. Translate raw data and information into tables, line graphs, pie charts, stem and leaf plots, box and whisker plots, and histograms. 3. Solve any linear equation including linear equations of the form ax + b = cx + d. 4. Analyze conclusions based on tables, line graphs, pie charts, stem and leaf plots, box and whisker plots, and histograms. 5. Consider alternate pictures to represent the same data. 6. Reflect on equations, graphs, tables, and plots that were created from the Holocaust || **Standards** 1. Probability (Grade 8) #4a 2. Data Analysis (Grade 8) #3 Probability (Grade 8) #4c 3.

 * Unit Theme: Holocaust
 * **Enduring Understandings**
 * Concepts** - probabilities for certain events based on population and migration
 * Concepts** - how to make tables and graphs by hand and on computers
 * Concepts** - how to combine like terms and manipulate equations to solve for an unknown variable, that linear equations only have one solution
 * Concepts** - how to make conclusions about tables and graphs
 * Concepts** - that there are different forms of graphs they express the same data, why use a particular one?
 * Concepts** - that all 4 content areas can be connected into one unit ||  || I**nstructional Plan/Learning Activities**
