Activity 1: What is UDL?Universal Design for Learningis a set of principles for curriculum development that give all individuals equal opportunities to learn.

UDL provides a blueprint for creating instructional goals, methods, materials, and assessments that work for everyone--not a single, one-size-fits-all solution but rather flexible approaches that can be customized and adjusted for individual needs.

How do the lessons compare? What stands out about the UDL lesson? What does this mean for daily lesson

planning?

Activity 2: Mini-Lesson

Measures of Center and Spread Median and IQR

◦ Procedures will have been taught◦ What types of data are best described by these

statistics?◦ From what types of distributions is it easiest to

see this? Mean and Standard Deviation

◦ Mean will have been taught◦ What is standard deviation and what does it tell

us?◦ What types of data are best described by these

statistics?

Standard Deviation: Lesson LaunchA recent article says that teenagers send an

average of 100 text messages per day. If I collected data from 6 teenagers, what could the possible data set look like to get this average?

Standard Deviation: What is it? The easiest way to do this on the calculator

is to store the sets of data in separate lists. After the lists are entered, press 2nd STAT, arrow over to MATH and choose 7:stdev( then ENTER. The students will now need to specify the list like L1 by choosing 2nd 1, close the parenthesis and press ENTER. (see screens below)

Matching Statistics to GraphsMatch the statistics below with the histograms provided.

Revisiting the Essentials

Begin to examine the available curricular resources.

Unit 1 is expected to take about 34 days. With your table partners, begin to think

about what your first few weeks of class will look like.

◦ What tasks/lessons will you use?◦ How will you pre-assess students for

background knowledge?
