Statistics are everywhere, from box scores and stock reports in the newspaper, to food labels in the supermarket, and locations on maps. And everywhere you find them, there’s a practical way to teach your students with examples from the real world. The activities in this book, written with the NCTM (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics) Principles and Standards 2000 in mind, cover a wide variety of visual representations of statistical information in easy-to-use reproducible format. Extension activities give each lesson even more use. Many extension activities can be done over and over, and often take the lessons beyond the classroom.

The extension activities also provide learning beyond the classroom. Many
of the exercises in this book are taken from everyday life, giving the students
many opportunities to apply what they’ve learned and find related lessons
even when they’re not at school. The extension activities can be used as
longer-term individual or group projects. However you choose to use the
activities, students are provided with example after example of the important
part that math plays in the world around them.

We hope these activities motivate and inspire your students to become more
aware of the world of math in which they live, and give you additional options
as you guide them throughout the school year.
