Method of Teaching

Use the Blackline Masters 3.1 and 3.2 to create overheads for entering one variable data sets that are non-weighted and weighted and graphing a histogram that represents the data. Go over in detail how to select interval size either logically or mathematically.

Next, use the Blackline Master 3.3 to create a worksheet for the students. Have the students enter the data sets and construct a histogram. Use the topics For Discussion to supplement the worksheets.
