New book in the Blue Series: Data and Graphs

A new kid on the block!

Math Mammoth Data and Graphs is a worktext that covers common statistical graphs and some related topics for grades 2-5.

It is a worktext, which means it includes both the "text" (instruction) and the "work" (exercises and problems).

The book starts with the easiest topics: reading and making bar graphs, pictograms, histograms, and various kinds of line graphs.  Toward the end of the book, we also study average (also called the mean) and mode, and how these two concepts relate to line and bar graphs.

Lessons on statistics

Is statistics one of your favorite or least favorite topics in math? :)

Well... however you feel about it, in middle school students need to learn some beginnings of statistics, such as how to draw a boxplot, a histogram, or a stem-and-leaf plot, learn about statistical distributions, measures of central tendency (mean, median, and mode), measures of variability, and so on.

You can now do so with these videos of mine  :^)
 

or with this Youtube playlist.

I hope they are of help!
