8th Grade Statistics Resources

A brilliant Real-Life activity that will cement the subject matter in a way that no normal classroom Math exercise can!

This 12-page task and key is a DIY alternative to repetitive and boring Data and Statistics tasks. Students will use measures of central tendency and measures of dispersion to make real life choices about planting certain crops or not, which sports team will win a game given the weight and height of the players, etc. The product improves students' understanding of the use of the following statistics:

• mean
• median
• mode
• range
• quartile 1
• quartile 3
• Inter-Quartile Range
• Lower Outlier
• Higher Outlier

From 7th Grade math, I hardly teach these topics any more, since students know them well by now. I give them these tasks, and it takes them 2 to 3 days to complete.

You may also find these equally interesting, especially now with the Olympics!

A great end of year, seasonal game that still has educational merit. Suitable for all ages. This game is available in a 5 for 3 bundle. It is a game designed to explore probabilities, and how they change as time goes on. But can also be played just for fun as a way to develop strategic thinking. There are varied numbers of weather cards, and you use your knowledge of their probabilities to prepare yourself with items to go out in that weather. If a rain card is turned over, and you are prepared with an umbrella, well done! You keep your Item. But if a sunny card is turned over, and you have an umbrella, oh no! You lose your item. The winner is the last person to remain in the game at the very end. The game is playable in 2 different ways, independent and dependent probabilities, as defined by removing completely or returning and reshuffling the weather cards as you play. Both give great play experiences. We have already played this game with tutees, and they say it's our best game so far! Purchase it to find out why. It comes with easy-cut guides, full cheat sheets and probability tracking pages for players to keep track as cards are played and revealed. Makes for great fun, and powerful learning. This card game is also available in a bundle of 5 games for the price of 3. For savings, click here to see.

Do tall students jump high and far? Do the same students jump high and far? Students collect their own quantitative data to answer these and other questions. The data collection does not take long. Afterwards, students calculate the measures of central tendency - mean, median, mode, Q1, Q3, min, max, range and upper and lower outliers (extremes). The handout (with complete answer key for the teacher) contains the formulas students need in order to do all calculations.

This project has been tried, tested and refined in my own middle and high school classes for many years.
