Learners classify items and numbers by using a Venn diagram. In this Venn diagram lesson plan, students use the computer to do this and classify pictures and numbers.

Young scholars use Venn diagrams to represent classifications of shapes and to use counting arguments to find the number of objects in a given set.

Learners explore the characteristics of sets and Venn Diagrams. Given data, students practice determining the placement of elements in a Venn Diagram. Learners discuss the correspondence between data sets and their graphical...

In this Venn Diagrams worksheet, students complete and draw 10 different Venn Diagrams to match each problem as described. First, they determine the number of students who scored above half on math or science. Then, students compare the...

For this Venn diagram and logic review worksheet, students respond to 3 questions that require them to write the best description for each of the diagrams.

Probability, especially conditional probability, can be a slippery concept for young statisticians.  Statements that seem self-evident on the surface often require a daunting amount of calculations to explicate, or turn out to be...

Keep the skills of your young mathematicians up-to-date with this series of newsletter worksheets. Offering a wide array of basic arithmetic, geometry, and problem solving exercises, this resource is a great way to develop the...

In this Venn Diagram instructional activity, learners fill in the blanks with always, sometimes, or never by reading the Venn diagrams.  The variables used in the Venn Diagrams are clearly defined.

In this Venn Diagram worksheet, students sort odd elements from given sets and answer questions about 2 sets shown in a Venn Diagram. A reference website is given for additional resources.

Triskaidecaphobia is an extreme superstition to the number 13—and ironically the answer to the word problem is 13! Presented with a series of descriptive data, individuals analyze the data to determine the population size. They...

Here is a turnkey lesson that walks young statisticians through the development and uses of conditional probability. From dice games to surveys, Venn diagrams to frequency tables, the class learns how a given can effect the overall...
