This worksheet allows you to check students understanding when they are asked to compare the findings of a student survey using data analysis techniques learned during the unit.
This resource is part of a larger unit designed for Year 6 that helps students develop their understanding of the different types of statistical variables they are likely to encounter during statistical investigations at this level.
