Learn the idea

A small data record can answer a small question. If the pretend record has three reading cards and two drawing cards, reading appears more often in this record. It does not prove that every child prefers reading. A missing card also does not tell us what its owner would have chosen.

Name what is shown in the supplied record and keep the claim about that record. Do not turn a few recorded choices into a claim about all children.

Use this supplied case: Pretend record: reading 3, drawing 2. Compare the recorded counts. Use the details in this example. An adult may read the words aloud. Point, draw or say your answer.

1. Follow the worked example one step at a time. Say or draw what happens.
2. Name what is shown in the supplied record and keep the claim about that record.
3. Say which detail makes the example answer fit. Pick another answer and say why it does not fit.
4. Try the question and practice questions. Read the rule again if your answer does not match the explanation.

Take it further

New record: music 4, puzzles 1, one missing card. Expected: music appears more in the known record; the missing choice remains unknown.
