Today we played pig and you were to collect data for your dice rolls. Towards the end of class you were to share your data with your partner. Hopefully you remembered to mark every roll on your graph sheet ... it's what makes the data real.
Graphs: Your graph sheet should have a title and labels. It should contain three histograms: one for your data, one for your partner's data, and one of your data combined. It should look something like this:

| Example of how to set up your graphs. Please use this format! |
1) When you look at the graphs, what do you SEE? Remember, this isn't what you should see or think you should see, this is looking at the actual data, period.
*You should be looking for patterns. Is your data similar to your partners? Different? And what happens when you combine your data ... does it change things? Talk, talk, talk ...
2) WHY do you think the data turned out this way? You might connect this to what you know about rolling dice and you might just connect it to what you think you know. Either way, what you did was "actual," and you need to discuss why this "actually" happened. Again, you may have a theory and that may or not have happened, buy why???
Due Wednesday
