In groups, students will manually calculate the total heights of everyone and divide that by the number of students. 3. Next, they will sort the data and calculate the median. 4. Lastly, they will identify the heights which appear most frequently. 5. Using Webspiration, the students will throw ideas to which average is the best to describe the height of the class. 6. In summary, the teacher will reveal the terms to these averages and share which average is appropriate. ||  ||   ||
