TEACHING

DATA,
PROBABILITY &
STATISTICS
Teaching data, probability, and statistics to
elementary students can be a fun and
engaging experience with the right
approaches. Here are some tips and ideas to
get you started:
TEACHING
STRATEGIES FOR
DATA, PROBABILITY
& STATISTICS
Data
1. Use real-life examples: Collect data
on everyday topics, such as favorite
foods, colors, or hobbies.
Data
2. Create graphs and charts:
Introduce basic graphing concepts, like
bar graphs, picture graphs, and charts.
Data
3. Practice data collection: Conduct
surveys, observations, or experiments to
collect data.
Circle Graph
Activity: Cakes Circle Graph
Students compare two scaled Pictographs
and answer questions about the displayed
data. Types of cake sold
Comparing
Pictographs
Activity: Scaled Pictographs
Students compare two scaled
Pictographs and answer questions about
the displayed data.
Probability
1. Use visual aids: Utilize diagrams,
charts, or graphs to illustrate probability
concepts.
Probability
2. Play probability games: Engage
students with games, such as coin
tosses, dice rolls, or card draws.
Probability
3. Connect to real life: Discuss
probability in everyday situations, like
weather forecasts or sports.
Probability of simple
events
Activity: Tossing a coin and rolling a
die
Experiment (Sample space)
- Tossing a coin
- Rolling a fair die
no. of favorable outcomes
P(E) =
no. of all possible outcomes
Examples:
1. The probability of rolling a 3 on a die
2. The probability of getting a head in tossing a
coin

or

?
Examples:
1. The probability of rolling a 3 on a die

1
S = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6P(3)
} =
6

2. The probability of getting a head in tossing a


coin
1
S = { H, T } P(H) = or 50%
2
Examples:
A survey was conducted to determine student's
favorite brand of sneakers. Each student chose
only one brand from the list of brands Adidas,
Converse, New balance, Vans, or Reebok
What is the probability P(V) = 15

that a student's favorite 90

sneaker brand is vans? 1


P(V) =
6
Statistics
1. Focus on basic concepts:
Introduce statistics vocabulary, such as
"mean," "median," "mode", and
"range."
Statistics
2. Use concrete objects: Manipulate
physical objects, like blocks or counting
bears, to demonstrate statistical
concepts.
Statistics
3. Practice data analysis: Have
students analyze and interpret data,
identifying patterns and trends.
Mean, Median, Mode
and Rage
Activity: Explore using the set
of playing cards to identify the
Mean, Median, and Mode.
Materials: Playing cards,
paper, and pens
Step 1: Find the mean Mean = 4
Step 2: Find the Median Median = 3
Step 3: Find the Mode Mode = 2
Step 4: Find the Rage Rage = 9
