Introduction to Graphical Representation of Data Sets in Connection with Nuclear Decay
Students record data, make observations, and share in experimentation and discussion of numerical experiments.
Curated OER
Graphing Sea Ice Extent in the Arctic and Antarctic
Students graph sea ice data and predict long term trends in the data. In this climate change lesson, students use sea ice data from the Arctic and Antarctic to construct line graphs. They use their graphs to predict the effects of global...

Random Sampling
Simulate a random sampling of data by tearing 20 sheets of paper into slips and place a number on 10 and a letter on 10. They place the slips in two separate containers and randomly draw a number and a letter. They record their...
Curated OER
Take a Walk
Sixth graders graph acceleration and practice using the metric system. In this physics activity, 6th graders take turns timing each other as they walk 15 meters. Students then chart and graph their data using the metric system.
Curated OER
Energy and Changes of State
Learners complete a variety of labs to help them explain how energy affects the changes in states of matter. They also be required to collect and record data, graph data, and apply interpretations of that data.
Curated OER
Bunny Cakes and Graphing
Third graders graph and analyze data relating to the book "Bunny Cakes" by Rosemary Wells. They listen to and discuss the book, vote on their favorite cake using Excel computer software, and discuss the results.
Curated OER
You Light Up My Life
Young scholars examine the relationship between solar activity and the Earth's geomagnetic field in producing the phenomena known as aurora borealis (Northern Lights) by reading and discussing "Earth, Wind and Fireworks." students graph...
Curated OER
How Do Populations Grow?
Students examine how populations grow and how invasive species can affect the balance of ecosystems. They simulate the growth of lily pads, analyze and record the data, and simulate the results of an invasive species on an ecosystem.
Curated OER
Experiment on Measuring Reaction Rates
Students investigate the rate of a chemical reaction. In this rate of reactions lesson plan, students use an electronic balance to measure the change in mass of a chemical reaction between hydrochloric acid and calcium carbonate. They...
Curated OER
E. coli and Their Human Environment
Students are able to observe how environmental changes (antibiotics) affect the growth of E. coli. They are able to use the "F" test for statistical analysis. Students can explain that E. coli is a common rod-shaped intestinal...

Counting Animal Populations
Students learn how to count animal populations by the Mark and Recapture method. In this counting animal populations lesson plan, students begin by predicting amounts of different candies in a jar. Students then simulate using beans, two...
Curated OER
Understanding the Mole
Learners develop an understanding of the mole and molar masses of elements. For this mole lesson plan, students use beans to find their relative masses and draw parallels to the atomic masses of elements. Learners work in teams and each...

Sampling Variability and the Effect of Sample Size
The 19th installment in a 25-part series builds upon the sampling from the previous unit and takes a larger sample. Pupils compare the dot plots of sample means using two different sample sizes to find which one has the better variability.
Mathematics Assessment Project
Generalizing Patterns: Table Tiles
As part of a study of geometric patterns, scholars complete an assessment task determining the number of tiles needed to cover a tabletop. They then evaluate provided sample responses to see different ways to solve the same...
