Our unit is all about data and statistics (what it really tells us and how to gather it and display it). Today (thanks to NC for the tip), I'll be teaching them a song about what each thing means. We will be taking more notes, getting more examples, and practicing how to find these things.
The song lyrics go to the tune of "Hey Diddle, Diddle, the Cat and the Fiddle" of nursery rhyme fame. The lyrics: Hey diddle diddle, the Median's the middle; You add then divide for the Mean; The Mode is the one you see the most; And the Range is the difference between.
I would love to give credit where credit is due, but couldn't find an author.
