Assessment for the California Mathematics Standards Grade 3
Assess scholars' knowledge with a 22-page assessment that covers place value, patterns, probability, estimation, measurement, geometric figures; and their ability to add, subtract, multiply and divide proficiently.
Curated OER
Scatterplots
Students evaluate equations and identify graphs. In this statistics lesson, students identify plotted points on a coordinate plane as having a positive, negative or no correlation. They complete basic surveys, plot their results and...
Curated OER
Mean Meadian and Mode
Students apply central tendencies to given data. In this statistics lesson, students calculate the mean, median, and mode as it relates to their data. They collect data and graph it while identifying the way the numbers are ordered.
Curated OER
Time For Breakfast
This unit encourages students to assess the validity of a set of statements and then plan and carry out investigations to find out whether the statements are true. Students then carry out statistical investigations of their own.
Curated OER
Fire Fighting Crew
Students use the concepts in statistics to make decisions. They calculate the mean, median and mode. They compare one firefighter against another and analyze the data. They share their information with the class.
Curated OER
A Data Processing Lesson for Statistics -- Reading a Table or Chart
Students identify the structure and key parts of tables and charts. They determine which data is meanjngful and make comparisons with the data. They describe the scope of the AIDS plague throughout the world.

Which Bag is Which?
Learners explore number sense by completing a statistical analysis game in class. In this data graphing instructional activity, students utilize visual references such as colored cubes and tiles to map out the results of an experiment...
Curated OER
Probability: Playing with Fire
Students use probability to determine how likely it is for each tree in a small forest to catch on fire.
Curated OER
Make That Shot!
Students figure out basic percentages by shooting paper balls into a basket, recording results, and calculating individual and team percentages for ten shots.
Curated OER
Musher Graphing and Probability
Students use the internet to research statistical information on the musher dogs participating in the Iditarod. Using the data, they create three different types of pie charts. They use the charts to answer questions about the dogs. They...
Curated OER
Why NP Min?
Students calculate the normal distribution. In this statistics lesson plan, students use the normal distribution to estimate binomial distributions. They define when to use NP and n(1-p) to make approximations.
Curated OER
Remote Possibilities
Students collect data and analyze the data using a graph. In this statistics lesson, students use combinations and theoretical and experimental probability to analyze their data. They observe a remote controlled robot as they collect data.
Curated OER
Assessing Normalcy
Students define normal distribution as it relates to the bell curve. In this statistics lesson, students use the central tendencies of mean, median and mode to solve problems. They plot their data and draw conclusion from the graphs.
Curated OER
What is a P-value?
Young scholars test the hypotheses using p values. In this statistics lesson, students define and examine conditional probability. They test each statement for a true statement or a false statement, based on the sample size.
Curated OER
Baseball Math
Pupils collect data on baseball plays. In this statistics instructional activity, students graph their data and make predictions based on their observation. They calculate what the probability is that a favorable outcome would happen.
Curated OER
What's in the Bag?
Students calculate the probability of an event occurring. In this statistics lesson, students calculate the outcome using combination and permutation. They differentiate between-theoretical and experimental probability.
Curated OER
Looking Normal
Students identify the shape of a function. In this statistics lesson, students plot the data collected. They analyze their data for positive, negative or no correlation. They find the line of best fit.
Curated OER
Line of Best Fit
Students identify the line of best fit. In this statistics lesson, students collect and analyze data. They calculate the regression equations and identify the different types of correlation.
Curated OER
Combinations
Young scholars investigate the possibility of different events using combination. In this statistics lesson plan, students investigate the accuracy of permutations and combinations. They solve problems related to combinations.
Curated OER
Means of Growth
Students collect and graph data. In this statistics lesson, students analyze their plotted data using a scatter plot. They identify lines as having positive, negative or no correlation.
Curated OER
Modeling Population Growth
Learners collect data on population growth. In this statistics lesson plan, students graph their data and make predictions. They find the linear regression and the best fit line.
Curated OER
Bell Curve
Students explore averages by completing a data analysis activity. In this bell curve lesson, students measure different food items and plot their measurements on a X and Y axis. Students create bell curves around the average weight or...
Curated OER
Line of Best Fit
Learners calculate the equation of the line of best fit. In this statistics lesson, students create scatter plots and find the line of best fit going through their data. They make predictions and draw conclusions.

To Infinity: Game Rules
Students play a game of probability. In this statistics lesson, students calculate the possibility of an event occurring as they roll a die and calculate the first person getting closer to infinity.
