These are the four handouts used with my SIOP lesson: 1. Relative Frequency A survey is a way to collect information. The information collected is data. A tally chart is a useful tool for organizing the data as you collect it. Relative frequency is a measure of the probability that a member of the population will likely pick that answer choice. To calculate relative frequency, divide the number for each answer choice by the total number of answers given. Directions: Holly surveyed 20 fifth graders at a water park about their favorite water slide. She organized the results in a tally chart. Complete the tally and relative frequency column of the tally chart. Favorite Water Slide Slide The Big Splash The Zoom Flume Niagara Falls The Log Canal

Relative Frequency

Directions: Think of a survey question to ask your classmates. The question should have 4 to 6 possible answers. For example, you could ask about a favorite school subject or a favorite type of music. Organize the results in a tally chart. Show relative frequency.

Did you ask enough students to represent all of the students in your school? Explain. 3. Representative Samples The people that you survey, or your sample, typically represent a larger group. It is important to find a sample that is representative of the larger group, or population.

Directions: tell whether or not the sample is representative of the population. Explain your answers. 1. Population: Sample:

students who ride the bus to school students standing at different bus stops in the morning

2. Population:

students at your elementary school

Sample:

the fifth grade boys’ basketball team

3. Population: Sample: 4. Population: Sample:

dog owners in your town 25 people attending a national dog show all of the teachers at Mandy’s school 20 teachers during parent teacher conferences 4. Biased Samples

Bias occurs when a sample does not represent the larger group. An unbiased sample will give accurate results. However, a biased sample can lead to invalid conclusions. Directions: Tell whether the sample in each survey is biased. Explain. 1. Meredith wants to know the favorite sport of students at her school. She surveys 30 students in the crowd during a home basketball game.

2. Michael wants to know the favorite outdoor activity of people who live in his home town. He surveys 25 people at a local golf course.

3. Gina wants to know the favorite school subjects of students at her school. She surveys 40 students as they wait in line to buy school lunch.
