Tutero’s curriculum covers the construction and interpretation of scatterplots, teaching students to visualize and analyze the relationship between two numerical variables. Students learn to identify patterns, correlations, and outliers, using scatterplots to make data-driven decisions and predictions in various fields.
This lesson plan on scatterplots features enabling prompts to assist students with the basics of plotting and interpreting scatterplots, alongside extending prompts for those prepared to analyze trends, correlations, and patterns in bivariate data sets. These prompts encourage students to use scatterplots for statistical analysis and decision-making.

Basics of Scatterplots
Students begin by creating scatterplots to represent bivariate data, learning to plot points and observe patterns or trends. They learn the basics of correlation and causation. By 5th grade, they use scatterplots to conduct regression analysis, interpret the line of best fit, and use scatterplots to make predictions and decisions based on data analysis.
Creating and Interpreting Scatterplots
Students begin by creating simple scatterplots to represent bivariate data and identify patterns such as positive or negative correlations. They learn to draw lines of best fit by eye and later use statistical methods to determine them. By 5th grade, students interpret scatterplots to make predictions and understand relationships between variables, using them in advanced data analysis and research projects.
Using Scatterplots to Determine Relationships
Initially, students create scatterplots to identify potential relationships between two variables. They learn to interpret these plots, identifying patterns, trends, and correlations. By 5th grade, students use scatterplots and correlation coefficients in advanced data analysis projects, including in health, environmental studies, and economics to draw meaningful conclusions from data sets and inform decision-making processes.
