Quartile Teacher Resources

The data sample comes from the number of glasses of water consumed each day by 15 students. You are trying to find minimum, maximum, median, and quartile from this data set. Minimum is the smallest number that occurs, while maximum is...

The middle of the data is important, but what about the rest of it? The lesson shows learners the importance of the range, quartiles, and extreme values. Pupils practice finding each of these values from given data sets.

The data sample comes from the number of glasses of water consumed each day by 15 students. You are trying to find minimum, maximum, median, and quartile from this data set. Minimum is the smallest number that occurs, while maximum is...

Determine medians within a group. Given data represented as a frequency table of grouped data, the video demonstrates finding an estimation for the median. After finding the group where the median resides, the presenter uses a formula to...

This thirteen page data analysis worksheet contains a number of interesting problems regarding statistics. The activities cover the concepts of average measurements, standard deviation, box and whisker plots, quartiles, frequency...

Statisticians analyze a data set of student IQs by finding measures of central tendency and dispersion such as mean, median, mode, and quartiles. They practice using a graphing calculator to find the values and analyze box plots and...

In this statistics instructional activity, students calculate the mean, median, mode, range, lower quartile, and upper quartile for 10 questions and interpret a box and whiskers graph.

In this percentile and quartile learning exercise, students complete a frequency table from given data. They determine the median, upper quartile, lower quartile and percentile ranks of specified conditions. This one-page learning...

In this statistics learning exercise, students examine a data set and identify the lower and upper quartiles. They determine percentile ranks of given material and compute the median of the data. This one-page learning exercise...

Young statisticians are introduced to box plots and quartiles. They use an activity and discussion with supplemental exercises to help them explore how data can be graphically represented.

In this range and outliers worksheet, students solve 6 word problems where they examine data then identify outliers, find the upper and lower quartile ranges, find the interquartile range and create box-and-whisker plots.

In this algebra worksheet, students identify the central tendencies as they solve a box and whisker plot graph. They identify the quartiles of the data. There are 4 questions with an answer key.

In this statistics worksheet, students identify the different parts of a whisker plot. They find the minimum, maximum and the three different quartiles.   There are 8 multiple choice questions with an answer key.

In this measures of central tendency activity, learners solve and complete 6 different problems. First, they count the number of items in each set of data. Then, students determine the mean, median and mode for each. In addition, they...

Students open a blank spreadsheet and format it for a class survey about the number of shoes owned by the men and women in the class. They enter the data before finding the mean, median, mode, quartiles, variance, and the standard...

Scholars research arm span to determine who gives the best bear hugs. They use data from a national study to find the standard statistics for arm span. It includes mean, median, quartiles, spread, standard deviation, and more.

Class members study the size of classmates' feet and perform a statistical analysis of their data. They solve for central tendencies, quartiles, and spread for the entire group as well as subgroups. They then write a conclusion based on...

In this statistics lesson, 11th graders are asked to calculate the percentiles, quartiles and cumulative frequency given different graphs and data. There are 6 questions with an answer key.

Study various types of mathematical models in this math lesson. Learners calculate the slope to determine the risk in a situation described. They respond to a number of questions and analyze their statistical data. Then, they determine...

Place the data in a box. Pupils experiment with placing dividers within a data set and discover a need for a systematic method to group the data. The 14th lesson in a series of 22 outlines the procedure for making a box plot based...

What information can come from a box? Learners choose a data set to display as a box plot and decide whether to include the median in the calculation of the quartiles, show the outliers, and change the scale. To finish the lesson,...

Box and whiskers have more to do with data than they do with cats! A video lesson describes how to plot, analyze, and compare box plots. Mathematicians first learn to create a box plot and then how to use information about the quartiles...
