📊 Santa Ana Graph Accuracy Clinic

Critical Thinking & Problem Solving Content Expertise CCSS.Math.Content.HSS-IC.B.6 Submission Required

Teams use their cleaned Santa Ana data tables and investigation notebooks to build or revise two final visuals in Google Sheets, Desmos, or by hand: a histogram, box plot, scatter plot, or comparison table that matches their question. The teacher models a fast check for scale, labels, units, comparison groups, variability, and misleading design choices, then students apply the checklist to their own graphs and note one anomaly or limitation. Each team leaves with revised visuals and a short evidence statement connecting the graphs to their hypothesis.
