Description
This unit is an introduction to Statistics and has over 100 pages of material specifically designed for students with special learning needs, especially autism who are in middle and high school. This unit focuses on some of the main concepts in statistics as well as the vocabulary like mean, mode, and median. There are differentiated versions of the worksheets that use color coding. There are lots of ways for students to practice these skills in this unit even if they are at different levels. This is the perfect way to lead into some of my more in depth statistics units (see below).
See the preview for a more detailed look at the contents.

Much of what I have learned about curriculum development is incorporated in these units. For example, do not be afraid of repetition. It is critical that students with significant disabilities get to experience material over several days to be able to fully assimilate what is being taught. Also, adding visual supports to your printables and class activities helps students be able to pay more attention to the content you are presenting rather than the mechanics of what is expected. Finally, ask questions. Good questions!! Regardless of the material, if we can ask students good questions it will push them to think more deeply than before.
♥As always please take a moment to leave feedback or post any questions you may have. Remember, you will gain credit toward future purchase on tpt as you leave more and more feedback!!
♥I am currently developing more units, and any feedback I get helps me make improvements in the future. Plus, it just means a lot to me.
I have an entire series in statistics if you are looking to go deeper:
