Curated OER
Scatter-Brained
Seventh graders graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. They create a scatterplot. Additionally, they determine the line of best fit and investigate the slope of the line. Multiple resources are provided. An excellent resource!

What's Your Shoe Size? Linear Regression with MS Excel
Learners collect and analyze data. In this statistics lesson, pupils create a liner model of their data and analyze it using central tendencies. They find the linear regression using a spreadsheet.
Curated OER
Exploring Graphs
Learners are introduced to connecting graphing in a coordinate plane to making scatterplots on a graphing calculator. Working in pairs, they connect points plotted to make a sailboat and complete questions on a worksheet as well as plot...

Math Lesson: What Do You Want to Know? - Country Statistics
Students are able to identify the characteristics of a variety of graphs (i.e. bar graph, line graph, pie graph, scatter plot, population pyramids, etc.) They recognize how the type of data to be presented plays a role in choosing the...
Curated OER
Thinking Outside the Box
Now this lesson sounds fun! Students throw a ball, film it as it soars through the air, and use a spreadsheet to collect data. A scatterplot is created to produce a quadratic regression equation, an equation in vertex form, and an...

The Kangaroo Conundrum: A Study of a Quadratic Function
Students play a game and collect data for their graph. In this algebra lesson, students solve quadratic equations and identify properties of their graph. They describe the pattern created by the graph and the game.
Curated OER
Modeling Population Growth
Students collect data on population growth. In this statistics lesson, students graph their data and make predictions. They find the linear regression and the best fit line.
Curated OER
The Swinging Pendulum
Learners observe a pendulum and graph their observation. In this algebra lesson, students use the TI calcualtor to graph the motion the pendulum makes. They analyze the graph and make predictions.
Curated OER
A Study of a Quadratic Function
Students factor and solve quadratic equations. In this algebra lesson, students play a game as the collect and graph data. they identify properties of their parabola and make predictions.
