This lesson plan allows students to learn about the layers of the atmosphere and to learn how to graph real atmospheric data.

Statistical data on the population and demographics of 228 countries, including change, sex ratios, life expectancy, and percent with HIV/AIDS. There are also detailed explanations of the means of producing these statistics. It is...

This lesson uses stacking cubes as a way to graph precipitation data, comparing the precipitation averages and seasonal patterns for several locations. Variations on the lesson can accommodate various ages and ability levels. Young...

Given an experimental situation, the student will write linear functions that provide a reasonable fit to data to estimate the solutions and make predictions.

This lesson looks at how to recognize patterns in a data display by examining the shape of a graph, the center, the spread, and unusual features such as outliers. Includes video. [11:16]

Enter a set of data points, then derive a function to fit those points. Manipulate the function on a coordinate plane using slider bars. Learn how each constant and coefficient affects the resulting graph.

The purpose of this task is for students to represent and interpret weather data, as well as answer questions about the data they have recorded. Student worksheets and recording sheet are included.

Test your knowledge of working with data by taking this twenty question multiple-choice practice test. Use a graphing calculator to help with any graphing problems and check your answers at any given time throughout the test.

The Advanced Data Grapher can be used to analyze data with box plots, bubble graphs, scatterplots, histograms, and stem-and-leaf plots.

Download these free worksheets to sharpen your skills with statistics and probability. Sheets focus on collecting and organizing data, measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode, and range), and probability.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this lesson, students compare different types of graphic displays to understand how to choose the best method of displaying their data, and they learn the...

Use Glencoe's randomly generated self-checking quiz to test your ability to use graphs to make predictions. Each question has a "Hint" link to help. Choose the correct answer for each problem. At the bottom of the page click the "Check...

Given data in the form of a graph, the student will use the graph to interpret solutions to problems.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Here you will explore displays of data using bar charts, histograms, pie charts and boxplots, and learn about the differences and similarities between them and how...

The importance of data analysis in science projects is explained. Describes common mistakes young scientists make. The article then discusses how to find out what the standard methods of data analysis are for the type of research you...

This task challenges a student to use knowledge of scale to organize and represent data from a table on a graph.

Middle schoolers will learn and reinforce skills for creating, applying and analyzing pie charts, bar graphs and line graphs.

This task challenges a student to use their understanding of scale to read and interpret data in a bar graph.

This task challenges a student to demonstrate understanding of concepts involved in representing and interpreting data.

Brief descriptions of charts and graphs, followed by links to larger sites on the same subject.

Given problem situations, the student will graph data with a constant rate of change to demonstrate relationships in familiar concepts, such as scaling.

Multiple graphs can represent the same data set and make the information easier to understand.

Given a problem situation, the student will analyze data presented in graphical or tabular form by evaluating the predictions and conclusions based on the information given.

Students use an interactive map to compare environmental conditions in different estuaries around the National Estuarine Research Reserve System. A second activity allows students to use the Graphing Tool to find, select, and graph data...
