Hey Diddle Diddle Mean, Mode, and Median

14 May 2013
Yesterday I shared a little nursery rhyme about mean, mode, and median on my facebook page.  I took this one to my class immediately, and it was a hit.  I love using mnemonic devices to help us remember different concepts in class, and this one was a perfect fit!

I whipped up a little practice sheet to go along with the rhyme, and thought I'd share it with you all here. Just click HERE or on the pic below to download your own copy (there is a coloured and black and white version for you).


Enjoy!!!

  9. Thank you so much Jen! :) I absolutely LOVE it! Another catchy way for students to learn their mean, median, mode and range differences.

    My year 8 and 9's always find my Primary School methods fun and 'so yesterday!' :)
