STAGE I – DESIRED RESULTS
Lesson Topic (Modules, if applicable):
Unit 12 : Probability and statistics
 Stem and leaf plots
 Box whisker plots
 Multiple counting principle
 Permuations and Combinations
 Independent probability
 Multiplying probabilities
 Adding probabilities
 Statistical Measures
 Normal Distribution
 Binomial experiments
Big Ideas:
KEYSTONE ANCHORS:
 2.6.8.B: Organize and display one-variable
data using appropriate data display, such as
stem-and-leaf and box-and-whisker plots,
and two variable data with scatterplots.
 2.6.11.A: Design and conduct an
experiment using random sampling.
 2.6.11.C: Select or calculate the
appropriate measure of central tendency,
calculate and apply the interquartile range
for one-variable data, and construct a line
of best fit and calculate its equation for
two-variable data.
 2.7.11.A: Use probability to predict the
likelihood of an outcome in an experiment.
 2.7.11.C: Compare odds and probability.
 2.7.11.E: Use probability to make
judgments about the likelihood of various
outcomes.
ELIBIBLE CONTENT:
 M8.E.3.1.1: Find the probability for a
mutually exclusive or an independent event
(written as a fraction in simplest form).
 M8.E.3.2: Determine the number of
combinations and/or permutations for an
event.
 M11.E.1.1.1 Create and/or use appropriate
graphical
 representations of data, including box-andwhisker plots, stem-and-leaf plots, scatter
plots, line/double line, bar/double bar and
circle graphs.
Understanding Goals (Concepts):
 Analysis of one and two variable
(univariate and bivariate) data
 Solve problems involving independent
and dependent events using the counting
principle.
 Solve problems involving linear
permutations and combinations.
 Find the probability and odds of events
 Find the probability of mutually exclusive
and inclusive events
 Use measures of central tendency (Mean,
median, mode) to represent a set of data
and describe how outliers affect
measures of central tendency.
 Find measures of variation (range &
interquartile range) for a set of data.
 Answer questions based on data displays
(box-and-whisker, stem-and-leaf, scatter
plots with lines of best fit, and bar
graphs).

Student Objectives (Competencies/Outcomes):
Students will be able to:
 Solve problems involving independent and
dependent events using the counting
principle.
 Solve problems involving linear
permutations and combinations.
 Find the probability and odds of events
 Find the probability of mutually exclusive
and inclusive events
 Use measures of central tendency (Mean,
median, mode) to represent a set of data
and describe how outliers affect measures of
central tendency.
 Find measures of variation (range &
interquartile range) for a set of data.
 Answer questions based on data displays
(box-and-whisker, stem-and-leaf, scatter
plots with lines of best fit, and bar graphs).
M11.E.1.1.2 Answer questions based on
displayed data (box-and-whisker plots,
stem-and-leaf plots, scatter plots, line and
double line graphs, bar and double bar
graphs and circle graphs).
M11.E.2.1.1 Find/select/use the
appropriate measure of central tendency
(mean, mode or median) of a set of data
given or represented on a table, line plot,
or stem-and-leaf plot.
M11.E.2.1.2 Calculate and/or interpret
the range, quartiles and interquartile range
of sets of data.
Essential Questions:
 How do you decide which functional
representation to choose when modeling a
real world situation, and how would you
explain your solution to the problem?
 How can we use univariate and bivariate
data to analyze relationships and make
predictions?
