Sixth graders examine how to make line graphs.  In this Olympic line graph lesson students make line graphs and search the given Internet sites to find data on their summer Olympic Game. 

Middle schoolers graph data of sports figure running time using x-axis y-axis to find slope of trend line, mathematically find the interpolated and extrapolated values for data points. Using the information they make predictions.

In this algebra worksheet, learners describe the relationship between a line graph and its data. They define the reasons line graphs are used and discuss increasing and decreasing lines. There is one involved questions, requiring several...

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

Eighth graders analyze data from line graphs. They discuss the purpose of line graphs, identify the parts of a line graph, answer questions about various graphs, and complete a worksheet. This lesson includes a script to teach along with.

High schoolers discuss line graphs and scatter plots and the best situations in which to use them. Using the graphs, they determine the type of correlation between variables on a scatterplot. They create a scatterplot and line graph...

Students compare the records of gold medal Olympic winners for the last 100 years and decide if we are faster, stronger than in the past.

Eighth graders investigate Newton's Law of Inertia in order to create a context for the review of the use of different types of graphs. They practice gathering the data from an experiment and put it into the correct corresponding graph.

Students work in teams to conduct short surveys of their classmates. They show their results using at least two different types of graphs. Students separate into teams and are asked that each team to choose something that they are...

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