Vocabulary Cards Illustrative Math, 6th, Data Sets & Distribution, Digital/Print

These vocabulary words are the new terminology that sixth grade students are expected to produce in their own speaking and writing while working through the Data Sets & Distributions Unit in the Illustrative Mathematics curriculum. I like to use the vocabulary cards as individual anchor charts/resource for students. You could cut them into individual cards and staple or punch them and put on a book ring. If your students have access to devices, the vocabulary cards also come as a Google Slides presentation.

One of the most effective ways to improve test scores, writing, and reading comprehension is to improve vocabulary! Five fun vocabulary game ideas are included. An example using the Frayer model is also included, with a blank sheet for students to practice using this strategy.
