Phase/Duration Learners Activities Resources
PHASE 1: Write "data" on the board and ask learners what it means. Encourage
STARTER them to share examples of data they encounter in daily life (e.g.,
weather reports, sports scores, opinion polls).
Briefly introduce the two study areas (Musa's book club and travel mode
in schools).
Ask learners: How can we find out the information needed for these
studies?
PHASE 2: NEW Present a real-life scenario where data is needed to make a decision Counters,

decision? (e.g., Reviews, genre preferences)
of sticks
Introduce the concept of data (quantitative - numerical, qualitative -
descriptive) and its role in decision making.
Divide learners into small groups.
Assign each group one of the following case studies:
Case Study A: Musa's Book Club (Quantitative and Qualitative Data)
Question: What are the most popular books among Ayisha's friends?
Case Study B: Travel Modes in Oyoko Schools (Quantitative Data)
Question: What is the most common mode of travel used by learners in
Oyoko Junior and Senior High Schools?
Each group will discuss and answer the following questions for their
assigned case study:
● What type of data is needed to answer the question (quantitative or
qualitative)? Why?
● Where/whom should we collect data from (target audience)?
● What data collection methods would be most appropriate?
Consider factors like efficiency, accuracy, and practicality. (e.g.,
Survey, Interview, Observation)
Each group will present their case study and choices for data collection
methods.
Facilitate a discussion on the reasoning behind their choices. Encourage
justifications based on data type, target audience, and practicality.
Introduce additional data collection methods like questionnaires and
online polls.
PHASE 3: Use peer discussion and effective questioning to find out from learners
REFLECTION what they have learnt during the lesson.
Take feedback from learners and summarize the lesson.

Phase/Duration Learners Activities Resources
PHASE 1: Begin with a simple question like "What is your favorite color?" and
STARTER collect responses from learners.
Show how to organize the responses into a frequency table, counting
the number of times each color is chosen.
PHASE 2: NEW Present two data sets, one grouped (e.g., test scores grouped into Data sets (e.g.,
LEARNING ranges like 70-79, 80-89) and the other ungrouped (e.g., individual test heights of
scores). learners,

Ask learners to identify which data set shows individual values and
sales data)
which one groups the values together. Explain the terms "grouped data"
Graph paper
and "ungrouped data."
Provide learners with counters or small objects and ask them to create
their own ungrouped data set (e.g., sorting the objects by color).
Have them group the objects based on a certain criteria (e.g., size) and
create a grouped data set. Discuss the difference in representation.
Introduce the concept of a frequency table. Explain that it helps us
organize and count data sets.
Show learners an example of a frequency table with labeled columns
(value/category, frequency).
Provide a data set (e.g., ages of learners in the class) and guide learners
in creating a frequency table.
Explain how to determine the frequency of each data point and organize
it in a table format.
Solve an example together to ensure understanding.
Example 1: Thirty bulbs were life-tested and their lifespan to the nearest
hour are as follows:
Present the raw data in a frequency table by completing the table below:
What is the modal group? Justify your decision for that choice.
Write this on the board. Test Scores: 85, 78, 92, 88, 75, 82, 95, 80
Travel Time to School (minutes): 0-15 (5 learners), 16-30 (10 learners),
31-45 (3 learners)
Instruct learners to create frequency tables for their assigned data sets.
Guide them through labeling the columns and tallying the occurrences of
each value/category.
Have learners share their completed frequency tables with a partner.
Encourage them to discuss what the data reveals (e.g., most common
test score range, most popular travel time to school).
Introduce line graphs and their use in representing data trends over time
or categories.
Demonstrate how to label the axes (x-axis for categories, y-axis for
frequencies) and plot the data points.
Discuss the importance of a title and labeling units on the axes.
Use the frequency table below to create a line graph.

5 3
Guide learners to analyze the graph.
● The line graph shows that most learners read between 1 and 3
books per month, with fewer learners reading 0 or 4 books.
● This data can be used to discuss reading habits and preferences
among learners.
Have learners work in pairs or small groups to create their own
frequency tables and line graphs using different data sets provided.
Encourage them to choose data relevant to their interests or
experiences (e.g., favorite sports, daily temperatures).
Circulate to provide assistance and check understanding.
PHASE 3: Use peer discussion and effective questioning to find out from learners
REFLECTION what they have learnt during the lesson.
Take feedback from learners and summarize the lesson.
