Tenth graders identify stars based on their line spectra. In this astronomy lesson, 10th graders analyze spectrograph and determine the elements present in the star. They explain the relationship between temperature and star classes.

In this human population worksheet, students are given data about the size of the human population from the 1800s to 1999. They plot the data and answer critical thinking questions about the changes in human population.

Students examine U.S. Census figures. In this urban centers lesson, students compare city populations across the span of 50 years. Students create line graphs based on the data.

In this gas lab, students use a pressurized soda bottle with a closed end syringe to simulate Boyle's Law. They alter the volume and watch the effects on the pressure of the gas. They plot their data and answer eight post lab questions.

In this area under the curve worksheet, students use a graph of the number of exoplanets discovered and the year they were discovered to solve 5 problems. Students find the total area under the curve, they find the total number of...

Ninth graders explore data analysis.  In this Algebra I lesson, 9th graders collect and organize data to create a scatter plot.  Students use the regression feature of the calculator to find the line of best fit and use the...

In this math worksheet, students look for the data to fill the line graph. They plot the data using the x and y axis to represent the correct categories.

Seventh graders find constellation distances and plot the stars. In this star lesson, 7th graders plot the star points for Canis Major. Students use graphing calculators to graph the constellation. Students choose another constellation...

Compare different random sampling types using an archaeological setting. Scholars collect data from an archaeological plot using simple random samples, stratified random samples, systematic random samples, and cluster random samples....

Real-life mathematics is not as simple as repeating a set of steps; pupils must mentally go through a process to come to their conclusions. Teach learners to read, analyze, and create a plan for solving a problem situation. The...

Here's another great way to learn from the past. Released free-response questions provide a look into how concepts measured on the 2005 AP® Statistics Exam on Form B. Teachers and pupils review questions that cover concepts such as...

So that is how they do it! Pupils and teachers see how College Board assesses topics using the free-response questions from Form B of the 2007 AP® Statistics test. The six questions are divided in two sections, the first five being...

In this math worksheet, students will work in a group to experiment with the weight of objects when placed at a distance from a scale (using a plank). Students will record and graph their results.

Students explore various approaches to solving a problem of maximizing the total production of apples in an orchard. In this apple orchard lesson, students collect data in order to solve the apple orchard problem presented. Students plot...

Students simulate the three types of plate boundaries using robots. In this earth science instructional activity, students explain how earthquakes and volcanoes are formed. They collect real-world earthquake data and plot them on the map.

Students review the patterns they discovered from a previous activity.  In this investigative lesson students plot data as a class and color a map. 

Students collect and analyze data. In this statistics lesson, students plot their data on a coordinate plane and find the line of best fit. They calculate the linear regression using the data.

Seventh graders investigate the concept of functions and how they are used in the context of the real world while identifying the dependent and independent variables. They graph relations and functions and find the zeros of functions....

Sixth graders view a Stacked Graph, and discuss what it shows. Students discuss the basics of graphing: labels, intervals, legends x and y axis... Students create individual stacked graphs from provided information. Students view a...

In this Statistics and Probability worksheet, learners create a line plot for the first 100 letters in the Preamble to the constitution and compare their frequency distributions to the actual frequency distribution.  The one page...

For this math worksheet, students will create a "bridge" out of spaghetti and test it's strength with pennies. Students will record their results on a table and then graph the results.

Young geometers explore relationships between units of measure and objects. Three activities provide varied opportunities to practice. Learners calculate the volume of two cylinders made by rolling a piece of paper vertically and...

Seventh graders are introduced to the concept of box-and-whisker plots. A step-by-step process for creating a box-and-whisker plot is provided. The goal of the lesson is that students study the components of a box-and-whisker plot and be...

Eighth graders examine batteries in a series circuit and the associated voltage. They determine, through inquiry and problem solving, that the total voltage of batteries in a series is the sum of the voltage of each battery. They design...
