Daily Lesson Plan in Statistics and Probability

Grade Level: 11 Semester: 1st

Teaching Date: July __, 2019 Time: _________

I. Objectives
A. Content Standard: The learners demonstrate understanding of key concepts, uses
and importance of statistics.
B. Performance Standard: The learners are able to give their own real-life examples
where the concept of using statistics is being employed.
C. Learning Competencies: The learners are able to thoroughly explain the
importance of Statistics in the real world.
II. Content:
Statistical Terms
III. Learning Resources:
Next Century Mathematics pp. 515-519
Teaching Guide pp. 237-238
IV. Procedures:
1. Presenting the new lesson
Before we begin our first topic for this quarter, let us have an activity. This activity is
called “Check-In”. I will group you into 4. In your group, assign one secretary to list the average
time each of you need travelled from your home to go school in minutes. The group will by then
write the information on board. (10 minutes)
What do these numbers represent?
Based on the information presented by each group what can you infer a general
conclusion?
What should we do to help anyone make a meaningful description about these
numbers?
(Follow-up activity)
Sort out the raw data and present it in a way you think would be a good presentation.
2. Establishing the purpose of the lesson
In this age of information technology, it is important to know how raw data are processed
and translated into useful information. As us such, education on students should develop
understanding on the concepts and processes of statistics.
Statistics is employed to find measurements, make estimation, prediction and solve
problems in real life.

3. Discussion of the new lesson

In our daily activities, we encounter a lot of sorting and organizing objects, data, or
things like what you just did. These are just few of the activities of doing Statistics.
What are other activities that you can give as an example?

What is Statistics?
Statistics is the study of the collection, organization, analysis, and interpretation of data.
It deals with all aspects of this, including the planning of data collection in terms of the design of
surveys and experiments.
There are two major areas of statistics and these are descriptive statistics and inferential
statistics.
Descriptive statistics is a method which describes the properties and characteristics of a
set data.
Inferential statistics, on the other hand, is a statistical method concerned with analysing
the sample data to make a prediction, inferences, interpretation, or conclusion about the entire
population.

For example: Determine which is descriptive and inferential.

Number of Students by Gender

47 % of students from
Section Male Female
section A, B and C are
A 13 17
composed of Male
B 24 21
students.
C 27 33

For example: Identify whether the situation will make use of descriptive or inferential
statistics.
 a. A teacher computes the mean score of her class in a mathematics test to determine if
the class mean is significantly related to their scores in science test. (Inferential)
b. A sari-sari store owner records the frequency of sales of the five leading detergent
soaps. (Descriptive)

Give some examples of activities which you think Statistics is involved.

Do these examples follow a general path like solving a problem?
Statistical terms
1. Data – any quantitative or qualitative information.
a. Quantitative Data – refers to numerical information obtained from counting or
measuring that can be manipulated by any fundamental operation.
Examples: Age, IQ score, height, weight, income
Students Weight (kg.) Height (cm.) BMI

A 39 143 19.1

B 42 145 20.0

C 47 158 18.8

D 50 163 18.8

E 53 166 19.2

b. Qualitative Data – refers to descriptive attributes that cannot be subjected to

mathematical operation.
Examples: Gender, citizenship, educational attainment, religion
Student Favorite Desserts

A Halo-Halo, Ice Cream, Banana

B Shake, Mango Float, Donut

C Tapioca, Macaroni, Mango Float

D Leche Flan, Apple, Cake

E Ice Cream, Tapioca, Cookies

 c. Population – refers to the totality of all the elements or persons for which one has an
interest at a particular time.
Examples: Members of the faculty of the school, the graduating class, the male students
in the class, etc.
d. Sample – is a part of population determined by sampling procedures.
e. Parameter – is any statistical information or attribute taken from a population. It is true
value or actual statistics since its source is the population itself.
f. Variable - is a specific factor, property, or characteristic of a population or a sample
which differentiates a sample or group samples from other group.
 Discrete Variable – is a variable that can be obtained by counting.
Examples: The number of cell phones users in a class, the number of computers in
the laboratory
 Continuous Variable – is a variable that can be obtained by measuring objects or
attributes.
Examples: The weight of students, the temperature in a city over period of time, the
area of classrooms

Scale of Measurements

1. Nominal – This type of statistical data depicts the presence or absence of a certain
attributes. This usually involves the random assignment of number to represent the
attribute.
Examples: religion, color classification, gender
2. Ordinal – This provides the degree of the presence of an attribute. Usually, data is
classified according to orders or ranks.
Examples: Academic ranking, position in a group of siblings
3. Interval – the measurement where data are arranged in some order and the differences
between data are meaningful. Data at this level may lack inherent zero starting point.
Example: Test results
4. Ratio – this measurement is an interval modified to include the inherent zero starting
point.
Examples: Physical quantities, allowance

V. Evaluation

Direction: Identify the statistical term describe in each item.

 1. A statistical method describe the properties and characteristics of a set of data.
2. Numerical information obtained from counting or measuring that can be manipulated
by any fundamental operation
3. A part of population determined by sampling procedures.
4. The act of drawing conclusions from the analyzed data
5. A variable obtained by measuring objects or its attributed
6. It is a statistical information or attribute taken from a population.
7-10. The scales of measurements and their examples.
