Mr. Cole Johnson's 6th grade students learned how to play a Golf card game. Students tracked the number of points for each hole (round) for 9 total holes (rounds). After the game was finished students compiled their points and found the mean (average of their points). Then students constructed a box plot using their points finding the median, interquartile, and the lowest and highest points. Then students found the interquartile range and mean absolute deviation. Lastly students looked for any outliers in their data compiled from their points over the 9 rounds they played.
