In this video segment from Cyberchase, Bianca works as a shoe store employee. She is given the task of placing the order for a shipment of a popular new shoe. The manager supplies Bianca with a chart of sales data to help her decide how many pairs of each size to order. Bianca analyzes the data, but unfortunately she only orders shoes in the most popular sizes and, as a result, she is not able to offer the show to a customer with a larger shoe size.

Here are some Frame, Focus and Follow-up suggestions for using this video in a math lesson.

What is Frame, Focus and Follow-up?

Frame: If we were to look at a graph of the ages of players on a high school baseball team, we would probably see a range of ages. What would you estimate the age of the oldest player would be? How about the age of the youngest player? How old do you think most of the players would be?

Focus: As you watch this video segment, notice that Bianca has a graph with sales data showing the number of shoes sold in different women's sizes. How does she use this data to figure out how many boxes of each size she should order?
