Statistical Analysis Vocabulary
Read, write, and use the vocabulary of statistical analysis — mean, median, mode, range, frequency, data, sample, average, chart, table, graph, pie chart, scatter graph, correlation — with understanding of what each term describes
Lesson
Set out your lesson
“Statistical Analysis Vocabulary means practising the idea at the table with counters or paper models and one clear check. We will demo once, then your child tries.”
Bring to the table
- Tally sheet or simple bar sketch
- A short set of category counts
Extra for the adult
Worked example. Cats 4, dogs 2 — cats have more. The tally and comparison are the proof.
Optional challenge. For Statistical Analysis Vocabulary, add one harder example after success.
What to notice. Keep one parent note: examples tried; results; support used. This session samples Statistical Analysis Vocabulary, not mastery.

Describing Distributions
Before you open · source notes
Describing distributions supports statistical analysis vocabulary. Not every regression model.
Free, no sign-in. A teacher solution is on the same page, so use the student view with your child.
Before you openAsk the learner to describe a distribution using center, spread, or shape words.

Source, access and review notes
Public Illustrative Mathematics task page. The .html address responds HTTP 308 to this URL. An anonymous GET of this URL on 2026-11-12 returned HTTP 200 with no login or payment prompt. Where a teacher solution is present, it is on the same page as the student task; this check did not find a separate locked student view. An adult can use the student view section and should not read a solution aloud. Advertising was not observed in the fetched HTML text; that is not a browser, device, or ad-free guarantee. This is a paper or discussion task, not an automatically marked interactive game. Opening the link does not save practice or assess mastery. Diagrams on the page use missing or filename-only alt text, so they are not an accessible image equivalent. Accessibility still depends on an adult describing the picture.

Check understanding
- Correctly define and calculate the mean, median, mode, and range of a small data set
- Use 'outlier' correctly to identify a value that doesn't fit the pattern, and explain its effect on the mean
- Use 'correlation' correctly when describing the relationship shown in a scatter graph
“If your child looked at a set of test scores from their class, could they find the mean, the median, and the range — and explain what each one tells you about how the class did?”
