Learners read a variety of word problems and find the mode, median, range, and mode from a given set of data. If calculators are not desirable, provide the class with notebook paper to work out the equations. 

What a find! Here is a instructional activity, designed to meet sixth grade math Common Core standards, that focuses on the calculation of different measures of center for the scores from a penalty shoot-out competition. An independent...

Fourth graders investigate when to find the mean, median, mode and range.  In this statistical concepts lesson, 4th graders collect data, make observations and graph the data. Students verify their work on the computer.

Given four sets of data, zombie-loving mathematicians find the mode, range, mean, and median for each set. The sheet is more challenging if calculators are not used; but the data set with large numbers may require a calculator.

Students calculate mean, median, range, mode and probability. Then, working in teams, they use data from their workplace to compute values for these terms. Finally the class explores the term "probability" using a die.

Students explore the concepts of mean, median, mode, and range as they elicit data about people's favorite flavor of ice cream. A practical application of the data obtained offers an extension to the lesson plan.

A helpful and versatile worksheet requires young mathematicians to analyze data in order to create graphs and answer questions. Additionally, it prompts learners to find the mean, median, mode, and range of some of the data sets.

Eighth graders use the sports pages of the newspaper to analyze the mean, median, mode and range of basketball statistics.

Sixth graders identify the mean, median, mode and range in a given set of data. Using a specified website, they use their skills to play the game, "Train Race" where students find the mean, median, and rage of information to help the...

Young mathematicians fold and flick their way to a deeper understanding of statistics with a fun, hands-on math unit. Over the course of four lessons, students use paper footballs to generate data as they learn how to create line...

Reinforce the concept of central tendency—mean, median, mode, and range—with a practice packet that comprises of eight problems and a structured answer sheet with plenty of room to show work.   

Three days of race car design and driving through the classroom while guessing probability could be a third graders dream. Learn to record car speed, distances traveled, and statistics by using calculation ranges using the mean, median,...

Students compute measures of central tendency.  In this range, mean, median and mode lesson, students gather information on the internet, organize the data and then compute the measures of central tendency.  They create a...

New Horizons began its journey to Pluto in 2006. Ten years later, it continues its mission. In that time, scholars have surely grown, but how much more will they grow by the time New Horizons reaches its destination? Find out with an...

The next time you read a magazine or watch the news, make note of how many graphs you see because they are everywhere! Here, scholars collect, enter, and graph data using computers. The graphs are then analyzed to aid in discussion of...

Fifth graders explore collecting and analyzing data. In this mean, median and mode lesson plan, 5th graders use real word data to determine the mean, median and mode. Students are given sets of numbers on index cards as asked to find the...

Young statisticians use and interpret measures of center and spread such as mean, median, and mode as well as range. They use box plots to represent their data and answer questions regarding the correspondence between data sets and the...

Add to your collection of math resources with this extensive series of data analysis worksheets. Whether your teaching how to use frequency tables and tally charts to collect and organize data, or introducing young...

Fourth graders describe weather data using the mean, median and mode. In this mean, median and mode lesson, 4th graders understand how to calculate data using mean, median and mode and why they would use each one.

In this lesson, Dynamic Data Range, Mode, Median, and Mean, students play a game while figuring range, mode, median, and mean. Students spin for their task, figure the mode, mean, median or range of a row of numbers and gain a space on...

Your learners will practice many ways of describing data using coordinate algebra in this unit written to address many Common Core State Standards. Simple examples of different ways to organize data are shared and then practice problems...

Eighth graders discuss how data is collected and participate in data collection through a survey. They complete a scavenger hunt on the Internet to gain understanding of the data measures mean, median, mode, and range.

In this stem-and-leaf instructional activity, students place statistical data in a stem-and-leaf plot. They identify the median, and range in a given set of data. There are four multi-step problems on this one-page instructional activity.

Twelfth graders calculate the mean, median, and mode of various wages. They apply these skills to asking for pay raises. They discuss whether the mean, median, or mode provide the highest wage increase.
