Wiederholung: absolute, relative & prozentuelle Häufigkeit
This GeoGebra lesson uses a classroom-style picture containing several types of animal icons and asks students to determine the absolute frequencies (counts) for each animal category—for example, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and hippos. It trains core statistics thinking: reading data from an image, counting occurrences, and reporting the resulting absolute frequencies for open-response questions. Construction-wise, it relies on creating geometric/visual elements and answer fields using commands such as Segment and Textfield, with dedicated question/input objects (e.g., q1–q4) and multiple labeled visual objects to represent where each animal type appears. Interactive elements like Start and move support student navigation/review, while buttons (e.g., a restart action like “Nochmal”) allow repeated attempts. Best suited for grades 5–6 and introductory probability & statistics lessons focused on absolute frequency estimation from representations.

AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a classroom-style picture containing several types of animal icons. The picture should include icons of elephants, giraffes, zebras, and hippos. Each type of animal icon should have a corresponding label indicating its location in the picture. The picture should also include several input fields where students can enter the count for each type of animal. At the bottom of the picture, include a start button that allows students to begin the activity. When the start button is clicked, the animal icons should appear one by one, and students can enter the corresponding count. In the bottom right corner of the picture, include a retry button that allows students to retry the activity. When the retry button is clicked, the animal icons should reappear, and students can re-enter the counts.
