Game: ROCK FALL
Aim: Smash all the falling rocks
Method:
Click / tap on each falling rock. Answer the question in the box as quickly as you can.
There are only 4 questions in this game so it is quite short... if you can get those rocks!
Your final score is based on number of questions answered right / wrong, and the time taken.
8th grade / Statistics / Discrete data / Stem and leaf / Stem & leaf: mode median range
A stem and leaf diagram is a way of displaying a data set that shows the range of data in tabular form. Each data point is split into two parts, often splitting the first digit (the stem) from the remaining digit or digits (the leaf). This allows for a graphical division of the data into groups based on stems, with individual data points distinguished by their leaves. Stem and leaf diagrams can also be used for decimal numbers by splitting on the decimal point.
Stem and leaf diagrams make it relatively easy to find the mode, median and range for a data set. To find the mode from a stem and leaf diagram, look for the leaf value that appears most often in one row (do not count leaves from different rows as these are not the same value). The modal value is the most common leaf within one row combined with the stem according to the rule given by the diagram key.
To find the median value in a stem and leaf diagram, you should ensure that the diagram is ordered (stem values ascending from top to bottom, leaf values ascending from left to right). Then, count all the leaves in all the rows, and divide that number + 1 by 2. So if there are 15 leaves, the median value is at position (15 + 1) / 2 = 8. Count along all the leaves to the eighth leaf and read off the value as above by combining it with the stem value. If the median position falls between two leaves, calculate the median leaf value by adding the two values and dividing by two before combining it with the stem value.
To find the range of a stem and leaf diagram, take away the smallest value (stem and leaf) from the largest value (stem and leaf).
In this topic you are asked to calculate the mode, median or range of a series of stem and leaf diagrams. You will learn how useful these diagrams are for quickly deriving these values due to the way the data is laid out. There are 6 question/answer pairs in the lessons for this topic, and an additional 10 question/answer pairs in all the games and tests.
With our Rock fall math game you will be practicing the topic "Stem & leaf: mode median range" from 8th grade / Statistics / Discrete data / Discrete data. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to find the mode, median and range for each of these stem and leaf diagrams.
ROCK FALL is based on the road traffic warning sign for falling rocks - a sign that seems a bit less useful than somebody getting up there on that cliff and actually doing something about it... Anyway, the rocks are falling and it is your job to stop them hitting the road below, or at least stopping them hitting the road below too many times and breaking it. Smash the rocks by clicking or tapping on them (not so easy in real life of course) - they will turn into snowflakes and float gently down into nothing.
There are 4 rocks to stop and not much time to do it (if you want to get a good score and get on the leaderboard). This game is fun and fast and requires good reflexes and a good strategy. Plan to break the smaller rocks first if you want a good score because the rocks fall faster as the game progresses. It also helps to decide where on their path you plan to click / tap the rocks.
