Instructional Ideas
  • Cut out problem and answer squares to use as individual exit tickets
  • Allow learners to work on the pages independently or in small groups to obtain additional help from their peers 
  • Invite early finishers to create a new set of numbers and find the central tendency
Classroom Considerations
  • The worksheet is the third of six resources in a series that provides substitute lessons for a sixth grade class 
  • The answer sheet requires additional copies if all eight problems are assigned at once 
  • Pupils should be familiar with central tendency and how to solve such problems independently    
Pros
  • Problem pages have bright, graphic backgrounds
  • Clear and well-organized layout of problems and answer sheet 
Cons
  • None
