Rewrite the standard. How does the assignment relate to the standard?
6.SP.4 -Students show numerical information in plots on a number line, containing dot plots, histograms, and box plots.
6.SP.5c -Students provide significant measures of center (median and/or mean).
The assignment relates to the standard because you have you have to find the mode, median, and mean for the number of the set of letters in each word after you roll a dice. You also have to create a box plot and a dot plot of the data.

What are the steps you took to complete and do well on this assignment?
I first rolled a dice and I got a 4 for Shakespeare and a 1 for Harry Potter. Then I counted 50 words from the number I got. For example, I started on the fourth word for Shakespeare. After that I counted the words for each number of letters they had. Next, I found the mean, median, and mode. Finally, I created a poster for the Shakespeare vs. Harry Potter project.
This assignment demonstrates the following strengths...
This assignment demonstrates that I can find the mean, mode, and median of a set of data in any situation. It also shows that I can create a dot plot and box plot to show the a set of data. It shows that I can create a poster too.
I could have improved on this assignment by...
I could have improved on this assignment by making my poster more decorative and colorful. I could have made my box plot and passages bigger so that people can see it clearly, but at least I got a 4.
How will you apply the skills you learned from this assignment in the real world when you are an adult or in other classes while you are still a student?
I can be prepared for mean, median, and mode wherever I am. I can find the data from a set of numbers and use it to help me in situations. I can also use box plots and dot plots in everyday situations.
