Measures of Central Tendency: Mean, Median and Mode
Nicole's poems
1. If I were in charge of the world
If I were in charge of the world
I would cancel annoying phrases
Allergies
Bruises or scabs
Fights between friends
If I were in charge of the world
I would make time for family
Friends
Chocolate for dinner
And chicken fingers
If I were in charge of the world
There wouldn’t be nonsense
Reading
Cold water in showers
Baths
And dummies
If I were in charge of the world
I would get everything cool
Like chocolate schools
For someone who forgets to brush her hair
Or feed her fish
would still be in charge of the world

4. shy
Shy is a dark shadow over you
It sounds like crickets
It tastes like rotten milk
It smells like trash
It makes me feel sad
nervous
Nervous is pale white
It sounds like boo’s from a crowd
5. It tastes like dog food
It smells like stinky cheese
It feels like butterflies in my stomach
excited
Excited is neon green
It sounds like kids playing
It tastes like ice cream
It smells like flowers
It feels like I am flying
