Students are given three choices of food. They then decide on their favorite and predict what the class's favorite food will be. After the teacher enters the data into the computer, students gather around the computer to view the...

Demonstrate several ways to represent data with your class. They will use surveys to gather data and display the data using tally charts and graphs. Then answer questions according to the data.

Fifth and sixth graders practice working in pairs to determine whether they can walk with constant speed. They test themselves, collect their data, draw graphs with their data collected, manipulate the data, and then draw conclusions...

Fifth graders learn and then demonstrate their knowledge of a bar and a circle graph using the classroom data. Students are given a pack of skittles candy. Students create a bar and circle graph indicating the results of the contents of...

Students examine the diet of panthers. In this interpreting data lesson, students collect data on the panther's diet and chart the data in bar and pie graphs.

In this math worksheet, middle schoolers find the solutions to the problems while interpreting the line, bar, and circle graphs. The examples are given to help in the context of each objective.

Students differentiate between bar graphs, line graphs, pictographs and bar graphs. After participating in a hands-on cookie activity, students label and draw their own graphs.

Students use commercial software to organize and visually display data to draw conclusions; students use graphing software to create several types of graphs illustrating the number of each color of M&M's in one bag.

Students examine graphs to find the most appropriate for various kinds of data.  In this graphing lesson, student create bar, line and circle graphs.  Students create graphs electronically and manually interpreting the data.

Students collect and analyze data. In this statistics lesson, students graph their data and make inferences from the collected data. They display their data using graphs, bar graphs, circles graphs and Venn diagrams.

Students read graphs and charts to interpret results. In this algebra lesson, students interpret bar, line and pictographs. They draw conclusions and make predicitons based on these charts.

Middle schoolers discover how to relate collected data with a box and whiskers graph in a number of formats. They collect, organize, create, and interpret a box and whiskers graph. Pupils interpret the difference between sets of data,...

Fifth graders interpret data into graphs and percentages.  In this organizing data lesson plan, 5th graders discuss bar, circle and line graphs.  Students complete bar graph and apply probability using the results.

Students collect data, use a computer spreadsheet program to create various graphs, and compare the graphs. They state the findings of each graph in writing and decide which graph type best represents the data.

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...

Learners collect, graph and analyze data. In this statistics lesson, students use circle, pie, bar and lines to represent data. They analyze the data and make predictions bases on the scatter plots created.

Young scholars investigate line graphs.   In this middle school mathematics activity, students compare and contrast different types of graphs and create line graphs based on the data provided.

Fifth graders collect temperature readings over a period of time, enter the information into a spreadsheet and choose the appropriate graph to display the results.

Students explore the concept of interpreting data. In this interpreting data lesson, students make a line plot of themselves according to the number of cubes they can hold in their hand. Students create their own data to graph and...

Students respond to survey questions, discuss results, brainstorm ways to represent survey information, and create table of class results. They find mean, range, and percentages, and create graph to display results.

In this statistics worksheet, students examine and interpret pictographs and line graphs. Students analyze the provided data in order to create bar graphs, circle graphs, and box and whisker plots. The nine page worksheet accompanies a...

Young scholars use the tools of data analysis for managing information. They solve problems by generating, collecting, organizing, displaying histograms on bar graphs, circle graphs, line graphs, pictographs and charts. Students...

Students analyze and interpret graphs. In this graphing lesson, students view a video and construct their own graphs (line, circle, bar) from given sets of data. 

For this data analysis worksheet, young scholars work with a partner to collect information for a survey. The information is then compiled into a graph. Students must indicate their survey question, the target audience, predict the...
