Abstract: 

This booklet is part of the Curriculum and Evaluation for School Mathematics Addenda Series, Grades K-6. This series was designed to illustrate the standards and to help you translate them into classroom practice. In Making Sense of Data you will find that familiar activities have been redesigned and infused with an investigative flavor. You will discover new ideas that can be easily incorporated into your mathematics program. You will also encounter a variety of problems and questions to explore with your class. Margin notes give you an additional information on the activities and on such topics as student self-confidence, evaluation, and grouping. Connections to science, language arts, social studies, and other areas in the curriculum are made throughout. Supporting statements from the Curriculum and Evaluation Standards appear as margin notes.
