Seventh graders engage in a lesson plan which take the fear out of graphing. They create and draw conclusions from data found in a Monster graph.

Students 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 determine...

Seventh graders identify the different graphs used in science. In this graphing activity, 7th graders analyze the three kinds of graphs. They construct a graph that best describes a given data.

Third graders compare the past and present daily life of West Bloomfield and Wilmington, North Carolina using narratives and graphic data. The create a table comparing and contrasting the two communities.

Students create an experiment in which they measure the speed of a wave and record the data in a graph. They work in small groups to write the procedure for the experiment and share it with another group for cross checking of the...

Students create a scatter plot of their experimental data. For this algebra lesson, students use M&M's to determine an algebraic model. They discuss results in class.

Middle schoolers locate the many forests located in Oregon. In groups, they use the internet to research employment data on wood products made in the state. They discuss how looking at information presented in a different way can...

Students identify physical and human characteristics used to describe a desirable place to live. They research and create a table comparing 5 Texas counties according to specific characteristics. Students evaluate the data and choose the...

Students study mean, median, and mode. They construct paper airplanes and test them to see how far they fly. They measure the distance and then find the averages of their throws. They use spreadsheet software to record the data in a...

Seventh graders create a line graph and identify when to use line graphs. In this line graphs lesson plan, 7th graders analyze the average temperatures of various cities. Students graph the data they collected.

Fifth graders create a 3D Pie graph using the Chart Wizard in Excel to represent their assigned states' data. They discuss the similarities and differences between states, and form a hypothesis on the relationship between location and...

Students discuss the topic of streamflow and how it occurs. They take measurements and analyze them. They interpret data and create their own charts and graphs.
