Find the Mean, Median and Mode of Your Name!

May 19, 2013 By fancyfreein4th

Our Open House is this coming Thursday and all of the teachers at my school are all a buzz thinking of some cute bulletin board ideas to showcase the learning that has taken place over the past month or so.  At the end of the year we go over Statistics: Mean, Median, Mode and Range.  Check out this CUTE activity that we did, the kids LOVED it!

How much is your name worth? Finding the Mean, Median and Mode of your name!
 Here is what is included in this set….
4 Teaching/Reviewing Posters that are GREAT for your math word wall!

A key that helps the students find out how much their name is worth…
A rough draft think sheet to record and solve for each

 The final draft recording page…

2 differentiated slides for struggling students….

 Here is how we shared our Final Draft for our Open House Math Bulletin Board…

For the Bubble Alphabet Letters that I used for their Final Drafts, you can access them free here.  It made the file too large to post on TpT.  You can also have them write their name out or use magazine letters. I liked it more uniform and went with this.

My class absolutely LOVED this activity. I did it step by step with them and used my name as an example so that they understood exactly what I was looking for. They checked their neighbor’s work as I walked around and monitored too.  It was a perfect End of Year activity and a terrific Math Bulletin Board! You can purchase this set here at my Teachers Pay Teachers store for only $1.75!

    I LOVE your blog! I have used the idea of giving letters numerical value in my classroom for years. We must think alike. This idea is very clever because it personalizes a math concept and makes a great bulletin board. I am your newest blog and TpT follower.
