Reinforce the concept of probability with a series of lessons highlighting the idea of likelihood, probability formulas, relative frequency, outcomes, and event predictions. The collection is made up of four lessons offering informative...

First graders analyze nursery rhymes and gather data about word frequency. In this frequency lesson, 1st graders create graphs and tables. Students interpret the data.

Fifth graders interpret data into graphs and percentages.  In this organizing data lesson, 5th graders discuss bar, circle and line graphs.  Students complete bar graph and apply probability using the results.

Through an engaging unit, chefs-in-training will sort and classify data using tally charts. Learners will also create bar graphs to display restaurant data and interpret data from bar graphs using a variety of categories....

Learners practice graphing activities. In this graphing lesson, students discuss ways to collect data and complete survey activities. Learners visit a table and graphs website and then a create a graph website to practice graphing.

Upper grade and middle schoolers discuss their favorite TV programs, music, books, etc. Following a lesson on measures of central tendency, learners discuss random sampling. They conduct a survey and use charts and frequency tables to...

Third graders display information in a graph, table, and chart. In this data lesson plan, 3rd graders look at graphs, tables, and charts, discuss their importance, and make their own.

Learners read graphs and charts to interpret results. In this algebra lesson, students interpret bar, line and pictographs. They draw conclusions and make predicitons based on these charts.

Students discover how to find the mean, median, and mode from sets of data. By using statistical techniques such as whisker plots and bar graphs, they display the data gleaned from problems. Individually, students complete projects...

Young scholars count, sort, and classify jellybeans by color. They use their data to create a bar graph. Students are given a small bag of jellybeans, and a worksheet on Counting Candies Tally Chart. They work in small groups. Young...

Learners practice addition facts, record data, and construct a bar graph. In this probability lesson, students participate in a board game in which bicycles move towards a finish line based on players completing addition problems. Dice...

Here is an online lesson plan on data representation. In it, learners access websites embedded in the plan which lead them through a variety of activities around data representation and statistics. The activities are quite good, and...

Students analyze and interpret graphs. In this graphing lesson plan, students view a video and construct their own graphs (line, circle, bar) from given sets of data. 

Second graders draw a picture of a pond scene which includes various animals. They exchange pictures and tally the number of animals drawn. Then they record the number on a chart and write a story about their pictures.

Students participate in a game with M&M's to be introduced to percents and ratios. Individually, they estimate and record the number of candies they believe the bag holds and the amount of each colored candy. They open the bag and...

Young scholars concentrate on discrete quantiative data. They are shown that the vertical line diagram as a more appropriate way to present discrete quantiative data then bar charts. Students work as a group to help with the...

Students create graphs of circles. In this geometry lesson, students use Microsoft Excel to create graphs. They construct the graphs using paper and pencil as well as the computer.

Second graders gather information in a survey and interpret the results using a tally chart, a table, and a bar graph. They' present their results of the during the final group discussion. The subject of the survey is favorite stuffed...

Students use Venn diagrams to highlight the similarities and differences between comets, meteors, and asteroids.
