Data and statistics teaching resources help Australian primary teachers build student understanding of how to collect, organise, represent, and interpret data — essential skills in an increasingly data-rich world. The Statistics and Probability strand of the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics develops students' capacity to make sense of information through data investigation, from simple picture graphs in Foundation to complex data displays and statistical measures in upper primary.
TeachBuySell features data and statistics resources created by Australian primary teachers. Browse data collection activities, graphing worksheets (picture graphs, bar graphs, column graphs, line graphs, dot plots), survey and investigation templates, data interpretation tasks, probability activities, and real-world data analysis challenges. Many resources use engaging, age-appropriate contexts that make data and statistics meaningful and interesting for primary students.
Data and statistics connect naturally to other learning areas — students can collect data about favourite books in English, graph weather observations in Science, or survey peers about community issues in HASS. These cross-curricular connections make data skills practical and authentic. Whether you are teaching Year 1 students to create a simple picture graph or guiding Year 6 students through a statistical investigation, our data and statistics resources provide structured, curriculum-aligned activities for every stage of the learning journey.
