Litter Busters: Project Based Learning - Statistics - Persuasive Writing

Created by

Plastic waste is becoming a huge issue around the globe. This activity is a fun way to highlight the problem while spending time outside and learning about data handling / statistics. For this activity, your class will take part in a litter pick, collecting their results in a tally before transferring them onto a bar graph. They will then answer some questions about what they have found out. This activity works best away from the school grounds (beach, park, etc.) - you may need to create a risk

In Our Middle School Era

This activity is a fun NO PREP activity to do the week of Valentine's Day! This activity outlines lots of statistics and data about Valentine's Day and asks students to objectively argue whether or not it should be a national holiday in the USA based on the statistics. There are guided reflection questions to help students with the process, before asking them to write a final decision using Claim Evidence Reasoning. This is also a great way to introduce, reinforce, or practice creative writing.
