The All Star Game

The NBA All Star game was held over the weekend. Did you know that this was the third major professional sport all star game in the last month. The NFL Pro Bowl and the NHL All Star Game were also recently held.

  • Does anyone actually watch these games?
  • How do the ratings of these games compare to the championship game in the same sport?

Let students explore the actual viewing numbers of these events. Students analyze data, compute means, use proportional reasoning and consider how to most appropriately display a data set.
