Our math topics for 5th grade learners are designed to follow closely the Common Core standards for math for 5th grade pupils.
In the math curriculum for children aged 10 to 11, the topic of statistics is introduced to develop their understanding of data collection, representation, and analysis. Here are the key components of the math curriculum for statistics for ages 10 to 11:
Data Collection: Students learn about various methods of data collection, including surveys, observations, and experiments. They understand the importance of collecting reliable and representative data and learn to formulate questions and gather data to address specific inquiries.
Data Organization and Display: Students practice organizing data into tables, charts, and graphs to represent and display information effectively. They learn to create and interpret different types of graphs, such as bar graphs, line plots, and pictographs, to represent data visually.
Data Analysis: Students develop skills in analyzing data. They learn to interpret graphs and make observations, identify patterns and trends, and draw conclusions based on the data presented. They also practice comparing and contrasting data sets to identify similarities and differences.
Measures of Central Tendency: Students learn about measures of central tendency, such as mean, median, and mode. They explore how these measures can provide insights into the "typical" or central value of a data set and practice calculating them for various data distributions.
Range and Interquartile Range: Students learn about measures of spread, such as range and interquartile range. They understand how these measures describe the variability or spread of the data and practice calculating them for data sets.
Probability: Students are introduced to basic concepts of probability. They learn to identify and describe events as certain, likely, unlikely, or impossible. They explore the concepts of equally likely outcomes, sample spaces, and simple probability calculations.
Problem Solving: Statistics concepts are applied to solve a variety of real-life and mathematical problems. Students analyze data-related problems, interpret graphs and tables, make predictions, and use their understanding of statistics to find solutions. They also practice explaining their reasoning and justifying their answers.
The curriculum aims to develop students' data literacy, including data collection, representation, analysis, and interpretation. By the age of 10 to 11, students are expected to have a solid foundation in statistics concepts and be ready to apply their knowledge in more complex data situations.

Mode
Identify the mode or most frequent in each data set
Median

Mean
Calculate the mean by finding the total and dividing by the number of data points
Range
Identify the range for each of these sets of numbers
Outliers
Identify the outlier in each of these sets of numbers
A topic is selected at the beginning of a session at Free Math Games and will be remembered when you move between games or activities. The math for the topic is carefully constructed to match the elementary math level commonly taught in US schools. This means that you as an elementary pupil should see similar math problems to those you are seeing at school (if you are at school) for any particular subject. Please let us know if that is not the case.
See the help box below for instructions on choosing a topic here at Free Math Games.
UXO * Duck shoot * The frog flies * Pong * Cat and mouse * The beetle and the bee
Rock fall * Four in a row * Sow grow * Choose or lose * Mix and match
Click on the "1. Start" button in the top navigation bar - that brings you to this elementary level topic selection page. On the topic selection page you will see that the topics are divided up:
Since you are currently within the elementary section of Free Math Games you will see the elementary topics. The elementary grades will have loaded. Choose your grade. The broad categories available will load. Click on a category to see the available sub-categories and topics.
For example, if you choose fifth grade, then the category: "Fractions" you will be offered a choice of fraction sub-categories and topics suitable for Grade 5. Click on each sub-category to view the available topics.
When you click on the name of a topic, the topic will load into the lesson page (once a topic has loaded it will be available for all activities and will not have to be downloaded again) and the lesson start page will be displayed. You can choose to do the lesson or jump immediately to the games using that topic.
