In grade 6 math, reading and interpreting box plots in statistics unit is an important skill to develop for the better understanding of data. Read and interpret box plots quiz includes questions that require students to identify the central tendency, spread, and interquartile range in a given box plot. Teachers can assign this quiz to their students to improve their critical thinking and problem-solving skills which helps students to gain a deeper understanding of how box plots can be used to analyze and interpret data. 

 

For example, if a box plot has a large range and a long whisker, it indicates that the data has a significant spread. On the other hand, if the box is narrow, and the whiskers are short, it indicates that the data is tightly clustered around the median.
