Fifth graders collect data and use charts and line plots to graph data. Through class surveys, 5th graders collect data concerning a particular subject. They graph their data using a line graph. Students make inferences and predictions...

Fourth graders investigate the concept of graphing and comparing different types of data using pictographs, line graphs, scatter plots, etc... They gather data and make interpretations while examining the medium of how it is displayed.

Students construct bar graphs using the results from various experiments. In this graphing lesson, students review data from a previous experiment and demonstrate how to construct a bar graph. Students use a checklist to ensure...

Students explore the concept of statistical data. In this statistical data lesson, students read an article about the dangers of peanut butter to those who are allergic. Students perform a taste test of two different brands of peanut...

Pupils practice coordinates and measurements, develop 2D, 3D topological map, construct grid with string on real surface, establish "level" fixed point for measurements, take and record data points of elevation, and enter data on...

Students participate in and conduct a survey to determine various class favorites. They collect, organize and display their data, interpret the results, and complete a packet of worksheets to display the information.

Students make stem and leaf charts to determine the measures of central tendency using test score data. They analyze the data to draw inferences which they share with the class. They complete the associated worksheets.

Students analyze data.  In this secondary mathematics activity, students read and retrieve data from a statistical table on the Canadian fishing industry.  Students interpret and describe data in mathematical terms and make...

Pupils identify patterns and relationships from data that is collected and solve variables.  In this investigative lesson students study ocean productivity, the nitrogen cycle and phytoplankton then answer questions.

Students identify the mean, median and mode of collected data. In this statistics lesson, students collect, graph and analyze data using central tendencies. They work in groups to collect data on a robot through an obstacle course.

Students collect data and analyze it using a graph. In this algebra lesson, students identify different bodies of water and relate the flowing to math. They collect data on the rate of flow and the height of flow. They analyze the data...

Students collect data on the time of the ferry. For this algebra lesson, students use the data to predict a ferry schedule. They also compute the depth where oxygen would be needed when diving.

Students interpret data from tables and then create a graph to show the same data in a different organization.

Students explore how mathematical data is used to summarize and illustrate everyday life. They apply mathematical concepts and skills to analyze data. Students conduct a five question survey of 50 people or more and graph the data.

Students conduct a census at school. They collect data, tally it, and create a frequency table. Students display their data in three different types of graphs. They write complete sentences describing the graph.

Young scholars work to develop surveys and collect data. They display the data using circle graphs, histograms, box and whisker plots, and scatter plots. Students use multimedia tools to develop a visual presentation to display their data.
