Data – Year 4

Data – Year 4 gives teachers a coherent week of explicit teaching, guided practice, hands-on comparison tasks, independent worksheets and assessment. Students begin by asking useful statistical questions and organising categorical or discrete numerical responses. They then read and build many-to-one picture graphs, construct vertical and horizontal column graphs, choose efficient scales, compare alternative displays and describe highest and lowest values, spread and variation using evidence.

The editable 24-slide presentation models each concept in sequence. The editable 22-slide quiz provides 10 questions with matching answer slides. A 39-page A4 unit plan supplies colour displays and activities, black-and-white worksheet and assessment pages, 13 matching red answer pages, a four-page class investigation, a three-page assessment and a marking rubric.
