| Analysis of Data |
Grades Prekindergarten-Kindergarten and 1-2 (compare data) Grades 3-4 (use mean and range to analyze data) Grades 5-6 (use mean, median, and mode to analyze data) Grade 7-8 (analyze data and compare graphs) |
Grades Prekindergarten-Kindergarten (compare data from pictographs or
concrete models) Grade 2 (compare and interpret data in terms of describing quantity (similarity or differences)) Grade 3 (compare and interpret data in bar graphs and pictographs) Grades 4 (read and interpret line graphs) Grade 5 (calculate the mean for a given set of data) Grade 6 (determine the mean, mode, median, and range for a given set of data, read and interpret data represented graphically) Grade 7 (select the appropriate measure of central tendency, read and interpret data represented graphically) |
