Data Analysis and Measurement
Even as toddlers, children use data to organize and make sense of their world. Without the ability to classify and organize their world children would find it difficult, if not impossible, to make sense of it. Let’s discuss some concepts involved with data that children explore in the early years.
- Measurement of data
- Use of appropriate materials to analyze data
- Predicative use of data (probability)
- Beginning concepts of probability including estimation
Why is Data Analysis so Important?
Children who have adequate data analysis skills also tend to be better at:
- Organizing, classifying and sorting information
- Comparing attributes among groups
- General problem solving
In this resource we will explore this strand of early math in detail.
