Statistical investigations resources

Students construct and label a line graph of time spent on Maths and Science homework, and answer questions interpreting the data.

Students answer questions and calculate means and ranges from a composite histogram of rainfall in two towns.

Students present data on monthly school pie sales in a pictograph, and add a title, a key, and a label for the x-axis.

Students interpret bi-variate data on a bar graph to answer questions about social media and age of users.

Students state what things will affect how far a cube will travel when flicked in the middle with a ball-point pen, and conduct an experiment to see what happens in practice.

Students construct a dot plot of fish seen at an aquarium from a tally chart, and answer questions interpreting the results.

In this practical task, students interpret information presented in a strip graph, regroup the data, construct a new strip graph, and answer questions about the data.

Students conduct a statistical investigation about their prediction of the most common words used in English. They make graphs, describe their shape, and compare their own graph with ones that other students produce.

Students plan how to do a statistical investigation about a question that has been posed, and think about how they will collect their data.
