We will unpack why and how to integrate data literacy skills into current instruction across grades 2-8 subject areas in strategic and consistent ways. The data literacy topics will focus on creating and making sense of data visualizations in age-appropriate ways. We will explore turnkey strategies to enhance students’ data skills within our existing curriculum. Through hands-on activities, reflection-based discussions, and planning time, we will expand the tools in our toolkits and build our confidence and enthusiasm for teaching data literacy, foundational to future data science learning.
