Polygraph: Lots of Dots with Pre-Game/Post-Game

A collection of dot plots. Includes a "pre-game" (Notice and Wonder) and two "post-game" options (Category Creation and Using Vocabulary), depending on the level of vocabulary previously introduced. Use snapshots to share student "noticings," responses to interstitial questions, formation of categories, and/or use of vocabulary. Focus on vocabulary such as: outlier, gap, symmetric, rectangular, clusters, skewed to the left/right. Designed for Math 6, but could be used at other grade levels as well.
