Confidence Intervals: Population Mean; Population standard Deviation Known
In this confidence interval worksheet, students examine a given confidence level and sample data to determine the margin of error, identify a confidence interval, list the mean and give the standard deviation. Students complete seven...
Curated OER
Confidence Intervals: Population Mean; Population Standard Deviation Unknown
In this confidence interval worksheet, students examine given statistical information to find the margin of error. They construct a confidence interval for the population and find the mean. Seven statistical problems are available on...
Curated OER
Confidence Intervals: Population Proportions
In this interval worksheet, young scholars examine given data to construct a confidence interval for a specified proportion. They also identify the minimum sample size needed to support the required margin of error around the population....

People Are Like Peas in a Pod
Students experiment with pea pods to observe/appreciate the diversity of individuals within a population, and to explain of how dominant and recessive traits, genotypes, and phenotypes help produce variation in a population.
Curated OER
Parts Per Hundred (ppH)
In this parts per hundred worksheet, students read about describing components of a population by parts per a given number such as 100, 100 or 1 million. Students are given 6 problems to calculate the parts per hundred for each sample...
Curated OER
The Minority Majority
Students design a census class and school, then tabulate the results. They respond to a sample census, then reflect on why questions of race and national origin are different.

Does the Percentage of People Who Walk to Work in Cities Vary with Population Size?
To walk or not to walk? Pupils create box plots comparing the percentage of residents who walk to work in large, medium, and small cities. Using the box plots, class members compare the data that reflects available statistics. Scholars...

CSI Wildlife
Can DNA fingerprinting prevent the extinction of elephants? Young scientists learn about DNA fingerprinting before applying their knowledge to case studies of elephant poaching. The first case requires them to match the DNA from a tusk...
Curated OER
Sampling Distributions
Students analyze sampling from different population. In this statistics lesson, students define the meaning of sample sizes and what causes an increase or decrease. They graph their data on the Ti calculator and draw conclusion from the...
Curated OER
Sampling Techniques
Sixth graders examine how to select samples and apply them to an experiment. In this sampling lesson, 6th graders use a bag of yellow and blue cubes to take a sample. They predict how many of each color there are the bag. They set up and...
Curated OER
Population Study and Applications Using PTC Paper
Students study human population traits. In this science lesson plan, students gain an understanding of the terms dominant, recessive, haploid (monoploid), diploid, genotype, phenotype, scientific sampling, and scientific modeling as they...
Curated OER
Surveys and Samples
In this surveys and samples worksheet, students discover data collection techniques and write their own survey questions. Students use random sampling, convenience sampling, and systemic sampling and analyze their results.
Curated OER
Wildlife Sampling-Capture-Recapture
Seventh graders simulate the capture-recapture method of population sampling using beans. In this biology lesson, 7th graders calculate the total population of beans in the bowl. They assess whether this method is reliable or not.
Curated OER
Leveled Problem Solving Sampling Methods
In this sampling methods worksheet, students solve the six problems using sampling methods and determining if the results are biased or unbiased.
Curated OER
Tag and Recapture
Sixth graders participate in an activity in which colored jelly beans represent fish in a lake--10 green jellybeans per "lake" representing tagged fish. They draw from the beans (fish) and record the number of tagged fish they draw...

The Motion of a Virus Through a Population
Learners test the factors that influence the rate at which a virus spreads through a population. They complete a lab activity then discuss data collected and review and answer a set of questions.
Curated OER
Measured Opinions
Students read "Public Is Wary but Supportive on Rights Curbs," at the New York Times online. They explore how opinion polls are created and conducted, focusing on the wording of questions and the methods of sampling a population.
Curated OER
Insect Monitoring
Students practice the scientific method in the classroom, either in preparation or as a substitution for real-world field experience. They examine a simulated biodiversity research situation, using a "mini-plot" or
