Note:
A comprehensive library of downloadable classroom activities and worksheets is also available online from the United Kingdom CensusAtSchool website. Subjects currently covered include Mathematics and Statistics, Geography, History, Science, ICT and Citizenship. New to this site is an interactive histogram that demonstrates how changing the size of the groups along the horizontal axis of a histogram can radically affect the shape of the diagram and the conclusions that can be drawn from it.
Statistics New Zealand also have a number of statistically oriented worksheets and activities for both primary and secondary classroom use. These are available online at the Statistics New Zealand schools corner.
