  1. Stem-and-Leaf Plots Susan Phillips Lee’s Summit, MO

  2. Stem-and-Leaf Plot • Uses place value to organize data • Shows data in an organized way so it can be analyzed easily • Organizes data so it is easier to find the median, mode, and range

  3. Here are the scores for a freshman basketball team • Here is the same data organized into a stem-and-leaf plot.

  4. Can you tell how the stem-and-leaf plot was made? The first number in the data is 27. Here is the 2 in the tens place. Here is the 7 in the ones place.

  5. The key shows us which place value the digits represent.

  6. The stems all represent tens place in this stem-and-leaf plot. The leaves all represent ones.

  7. Let’s try one together…

  8. Here are one student’s math test scores. Make a stem-and-leaf plot for this data. First, draw the dividing lines.

  9. Here are one student’s math test scores. Make a stem-and-leaf plot for this data. Stems Leaves Next, label the stem side and the leaf side.

  10. Here are one student’s math test scores. Make a stem-and-leaf plot for this data. Stems Leaves 7 5 Find the smallest piece of data and plot it on the grid.

  11. The 7 for the tens place is already there. We just add the 9. Here are one student’s math test scores. Make a stem-and-leaf plot for this data. Stems Leaves 7 5 9 Find the next smallest piece of data and plot it on the grid.

  12. Continue with this process until you have entered all the data. Stems Leaves 7 5 9 8 3 4 6 6 8 9 1 4 9

  13. Remember to add a title. Test Scores Stems Leaves 7 5 9 8 3 4 6 6 8 9 1 4 9

  14. Key: 7 5 means 75 Don’t forget the key! Test Scores Stems Leaves 7 5 9 8 3 4 6 6 8 9 1 4 9

  15. You just completed a stem-and-leaf plot!

  16. Now, try it on your own…

  17. This table shows the times in seconds and hundredths of seconds for the women’s 500-meter speed-skating competition in the 2002 Winter Olympics.

  18. Use this data to make a stem-and-leaf plot. 2002 Winter Olympics 500-Meter Speed-Skating Times in Seconds

  19. 2002 Winter Olympics 500-Meter Speed-Skating Times in Seconds Check your work…

  20. Boxes of Girl Scout Cookies Sold by Troop 220 Using Stem-and-Leaf Plots • What was the least number of cookies sold? 40 boxes

  21. Using Stem-and-Leaf Plots Boxes of Girl Scout Cookies Sold by Troop 220 • What was the largest number of cookies sold? 94 boxes

  22. Using Stem-and-Leaf Plots Boxes of Girl Scout Cookies Sold by Troop 220 • Find the median of the data Find the middle leaf… 63 boxes

  23. Using Stem-and-Leaf Plots Boxes of Girl Scout Cookies Sold by Troop 220 • Find the mode of the data Look for the number that occurs most often in a row of leaves 63 boxes

  24. Stem-and-Leaf Plots The End
