-Visualizing Outliers activity is a "hands on" way of seeing whether a box and whisker plot contains data that would be considered outliers.

-Powerpoint with slides of 15 different clip art images. I run the slide show, then have a discussion with students about what they remember about measures of central tendency, and THEN have them take a minute to write down as many images as they can remember. We use the data to create a box and whisker plot to represent the class data.
