In math class we learn of many things,
Numbers and shapes and counting beings,
But there's a set of words that we use,
To describe data and find some clues.

The first is minimum, the lowest of all,
The smallest number in a group, that's not tall.
Next is maximum, the highest we see,
The biggest number, as high as can be.

Then comes median, the middle we find,
When all the numbers are sorted in line.
It's the one that's halfway, not too big or small,
A very useful number, we use it all.

The mode is different, it's the one we see most,
It's the number that pops up more than the host.
The mean is the average, we add and we divide,
To find the number in the middle that we'll abide.

Now, don't be naive, it's not so hard to see,
These numbers help us a lot, as you can agree.
In math class and beyond, they're useful to know,
So keep learning and growing, and watch your knowledge grow!
