Channing (above) and Louise (below) working with their box of raisins as part of a lesson in determining data landmarks such as: maximum, minimum, range, median, mode and mean. Students first had to guess how many raisins were in a box. Next they counted the top layer and then estimated how many layers before multiplying those two numbers together. Then they actually counted the raisins and compared their estimate with the reality. All students then shared their numbers and we processed this data to determine the minimums, medians etc.
