Activity Description

In this 6th-grade math worksheet, students will explore and analyze four different types of graphs: a scatter plot, a histogram, a bar chart, and a line chart. Each graph presents distinct data, and students are tasked with interpreting the information to answer a series of questions related to each graph.The graph presented to each student will contain a different set of points, which makes the answers different for each student, avoiding copying of answers.


Key Learning Objectives:

  • Analyze Different Graph Types: Students will examine and understand the unique characteristics of scatter plots, histograms, bar charts, and line charts.
  • Answer Targeted Questions: For each graph, students will answer specific questions that challenge them to think critically about the data and its implications.


Key Features:

  • Auto-Graded: This interactive digital worksheet is auto-graded, eliminating the need for teachers to evaluate it manually, making it an excellent practice activity.
  • Unique Questions: Each student will receive a unique set of data points to promote individual practice and understanding.
  • Re-Assignable: Re-assigning the worksheet to the same classroom will generate a new set of questions for each student.




Learning Objective

Students will interpret and analyze data presented in various graphical formats—dot plots, histograms, bar graphs, and line graphs—to:

  • Identify measures of center such as mode and average
  • Determine ranges, frequencies, and comparative quantities
  • Analyze and compare categories and trends over time
  • Draw conclusions and make observations based on real-world data sets


This activity builds key skills in statistical reasoning, data interpretation, and visual analysis, aligned with 7th grade math standards for data and probability.
