Statistics resources

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

Students interpret information presented in a tree diagram to calculate the probability of various events.

Students throw three coins, and answer questions on frequency, probability, and compare theoretical with observed outcomes.

Students construct a spinner and use it to investigate predictions of the probability of outcomes. Findings are recorded in a student designed table.

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 complete a table to show all the combinations, and work out the probability, of numbers possible on the top faces of two dice. They then use the table to list combinations that total 8 and 11.

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.

This task sees what a students understanding of probability is.

Students show their understanding of probability by identifying the shapes most and least likely to be drawn from a bag.

Students use the statements 'impossible', 'unlikely', 'likely', and 'certain' to describe events.

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

Students answer questions about a bar graph which shows the number of different types of animals at the zoo.

Students interpret a tally chart showing the number of times the phone rang each day for one week.

This task requires students to answer questions about a bar graph showing hours of sunshine over a week.

Students interpret a pie graph by answering questions on how city rates were spent over one year.

Each student designs a question and an associated scale to record other students' attitudes to mathematics.

Students to interpret pie graphs by answering questions about percentages and numerical values.

Decide if a described investigation is a fair test, and explain the decision. Assessment focus: identifying fair testing.

Students compare drawings of a healthy and unhealthy plant, collect data, and decide which data distinguishes them. This is a mathematics/science resource.

Students identify data as 'discrete' or 'continuous' from a range of examples.

Students list all possible combinations from six different articles of clothing.

Students interpret a table of children's votes for their favourite All Black to answer questions about chance.

Students interpret information in a frequency table to decide the probability of winning prizes in a competition.
