In these lessons, students learn to create and interpret leaf plots and stem plots, simple yet powerful tools for organising numerical data. Tutero’s approach includes hands-on activities that help students quickly assess data distribution and central tendencies
The lesson plan for leaf plots and stem plots includes enabling prompts to assist students in understanding how to create and interpret these plots, alongside extending prompts for those ready to analyse larger data sets using these methods. This approach helps students visualise and understand the distribution and characteristics of data, enhancing their data organisation and analysis skills.

Tutero’s leaf plots and stem plots exercise sheets introduce students to these data representation tools through activities like analysing class test scores or monitoring daily temperatures. These visual methods help students quickly interpret data, making it easier to identify trends and distributions in collected information.

Basics of Leaf Plots and Stem Plots
Students learn to create and interpret leaf plots (also known as stem-and-leaf plots) as a method to organise and display numerical data efficiently. They begin with simple data sets to understand how these plots provide a quick view of data distribution and can easily identify modes and medians. By Year 5, they handle more complex data sets and use leaf plots for exploratory data analysis, understanding their advantages and limitations.
Creating and Interpreting Leaf and Stem Plots
Initially, students create simple leaf and stem plots to organise and display small sets of data, learning how to separate digits into stems and leaves. By Year 5, they are proficient at creating these plots for larger data sets and can interpret them to analyse data distribution, median, and outliers, using their skills in exploratory data analysis.
Data Organisation with Leaf and Stem Plots
Students use leaf and stem plots to organise small data sets and quickly visualise their distribution. They learn to interpret these plots to find the mode, median, and range. By Year 5, students use leaf and stem plots for larger data sets in academic and real-world projects, appreciating their utility in exploratory data analysis and preliminary data reporting.
