Linda Jensen Sheffield, Mary Cavanagh, Linda Dacey, Carol R. Findell, Carole E. Greenes, Marian Small

This book discusses the early development of data and probability concepts and gives ideas for sintroducing some foundational ideas to young students. It guides teachers in helping these students discover the usefulness of bar graphs, tallies, frequency tables, and Venn diagrams to answer questions and make predictions about their everyday world. A series of activities that engage students directly in collecting, organising, and displaying data also enable them to explore and extend their understanding of basic ideas. Helpful margin notes provide teaching tips, anticipated student responses to questions, samples of students' work, and ways to modify the activities for students experiencing difficulty or needing enrichment.

Supplemental CD-ROM features interactive electronic activities, master copies of activity pages for students, and additional readings for teachers.
