Goal 5.2: Collect, organize, and display
data.
7.M.5.2.1 Collect, organize, and display data with
appropriate notation in tables, charts and graphs,
including scatter plots, broken line graphs, line plots, bar
graphs, and stem-and-leaf plots.

CL: C
Calc: CR
Content Limit: Given data, choose a display. Displays
limited to scatter plots, broken line graphs, line plots, bar
graphs, and stem-and-leaf plots. ‘Collect’ will be
assessed in the classroom, not on the ISAT.

• Collect, organize, and display data with appropriate
notation in tables, charts and graphs, including scatter
plots, broken line graphs, line plots, bar graphs, and stemand-
leaf plots.

information in pictorial form
• select the most appropriate graph for the data collected
• scale • labels • x -axis • y -axis • subtitles • grid lines •
legend • interval
• Survey 25 students to determine their favorite type of
soda and create a graph to represent your findings.
Goal 5 3: Apply simple statistical
measurements.
7.M.5.3.1 Determine the measures of central tendency – mean, median and mode – with sets of data.

CL: C
Calc: YES
Content Limit: At most ten numbers in data set.
Numbers are less than 300. Data set must contain at
most a single mode. Data set may have an even number
of data points, but should be in numeric order.

• Determine the measures of central tendency – mean • define and calculate mean median and mode
• arrange data in numerical order from least to greatest
• measures of central tendency • mean • median • mode
• average • numerical order
• From the following set of numbers calculate mean,
median, and mode.
21, 9, 9, 2, 10, 3, 9, 3

ISAT.

• Discuss distribution of data, including range,
frequency, gaps, and clusters.
• define range, frequency, gaps, and clusters • range • distribution • frequency • gaps • cluster • Find the range of the following set of numbers:
21, 9, 9, 2, 10, 3, 9, 3
Goal 5.4: Understand basic concepts of
probability.
7.M.5.4.1 Predict, perform, and record results of simple
probability experiments.

CL: C, D
Calc: CN
Content Limit: Items using multiple trials must be done
with replacement. Items may ask for the probability of a
combination of outcomes (e.g., the probability of
drawing a red marble or a green marble). Items may
require the representation of all possible outcomes

• Predict, perform, and record results of simple
probability experiments.
• recognize the probability of an event is setting up the
ratio of favorable outcomes to total outcomes
• predict • probability • outcome • fair • unfavorable •
favorable • likelihood
• What is the probability of getting "heads" when
flipping a coin?
  7.M.5.4.2 Recognize equally likely outcomes.

CL: C, D
Calc: CN
Content Limit: Item describes a familiar situation such as
spinning a spinner, rolling one or two dice (does not
include sum of two dice), or drawing multi-color objects
from a container. Equally likely outcomes must pertain
to the same event.

• Recognize equally likely outcomes • recognize an equally likely outcome has the same
probability of occurring for that event
• equally likely outcome • In a bag of 12 marbles, 4 are red, 4 are green, and 4 are
blue. Is the likelihood of drawing a red, green, or blue
marble equal? Explain.
  7.M.5.4.3 Explain that probability ranges from
impossible to certain (0% to 100%).

CL:
Calc:
Content Limit: Assessed in the classroom, not on the
ISAT.

• Explain that probability ranges from impossible to
certain (0% to 100%).
• recognize 0% means impossible and 100% means
certain
• compare fraction, percent & decimal representations of
probability
  • In a bag of 12 marbles, 4 are red, 4 are green, and 4 are
blue. What is the probability of drawing a white marble?
Explain.
  7.M.5.4.4 Use the language of probability

CL:
Calc:
Content Limit: Assessed in the classroom, not on the
ISAT.

• Use the language of probability • communicate correct mathematical terminology    
Goal 5.5: Make predictions or decisions
based on data.
7.M.5.5.1 Make predictions based on simple theoretical
probabilities.

CL: C, E
Calc: CN
Content Limit: Item describes a familiar situation such as
spinning a spinner, rolling one or two dice (does not
include sum of two dice), or drawing different colored
objects from a container.

• Make predictions based on simple theoretical
probabilities.
• define theoretical probability and make predictions • theoretical probability • What is the theoritical probability of rolling a one on a
number cube .
  7.M.5.5.2 Use appropriate vocabulary and notations.

CL:
