In grades 3-5 all students should
- NM-DATA.3-5.1: Formulate questions that can be addressed with data and collect, organize, and display relevant data to answer
- NM-DATA.3-5.2: Select and use appropriate statistical methods to analyze data
- NM-DATA.3-5.3: Develop and evaluate inferences and predictions that are based on data
- NM-DATA.3-5.4: Understand and apply basic concepts of probability
|
Formulate questions that can be addressed with data and collect, organize, and display relevant data to answer
- design investigations to address a question and consider how data-collection methods affect the nature of the data set;
- collect data using observations, surveys, and experiments;
- represent data using tables and graphs such as line plots, bar graphs, and line graphs;
- recognize the differences in representing categorical and numerical data.

Select and use appropriate statistical methods to analyze data
- describe the shape and important features of a set of data and compare related data sets, with an emphasis on how the data are distributed;
- use measures of center, focusing on the median, and understand what each does and does not indicate about the data set;
- compare different representations of the same data and evaluate how well each representation shows important aspects of the data.

Develop and evaluate inferences and predictions that are based on data
- propose and justify conclusions and predictions that are based on data and design studies to further investigate the conclusions or predictions.

Understand and apply basic concepts of probability
- describe events as likely or unlikely and discuss the degree of likelihood using such words as certain, equally likely, and impossible;
- predict the probability of outcomes of simple experiments and test the predictions;
- understand that the measure of the likelihood of an event can be represented by a number from 0 to 1.
