Young historians use their planning graphic organizer to prepare a personal narrative draft on expert trades. Since the instructional activity is considered the mid-unit assessment, learners respond to a writing prompt related to the...

Eighth graders measure in feet and inches and convert to explore the relationship between the converted measurements. In this measurement activity, 8th graders use the whisker and box plot to represent the measurement of a cat. ...

Students discover certain equations produce straight lines. In this graphing lesson, students draw axis and problem solve to find coordinates to graph.

Students plot the earthquake epicenter data on the base map of the North Atlantic ocean floor using different symbols or colors to characterize different values.

Climate change and weather extremes impact every species, but this activity focuses on how these changes effect polar bears. After learning about the animal, scholars create maps of snow-ice coverage and examine the yearly variability...

Students explore the concepts of graphs, correlations, line of best fit, and the dipstick problem. In this graph, correlation, line of best fit and dipstick problem lesson, students solve problems on the above mentioned topics. ...

Students identify the line of best fit. In this statistics lesson, students analyze graphs and plots to identify positive, negative or no correlation. They find the line of best fit for different scatter plots.

Trace the links between a variety of math concepts in this far-reaching unit. Ideas that seem very different on the outset (like the distance formula and rigid transformations) come together in very natural and logical ways. This...

Collect and analyze data to find out something interesting about classmates. Groups devise a statistical question and collect data from their group members. Individuals then create a display of their data and calculate descriptive...

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. Learners use the Pythagorean Theorem to develop a formula to find that distance. They then find the midpoint using an average formula. 

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....

An informative presentation covers motion, metric system, conversions, graphing of coordinates and lines, speed, velocity, and acceleration problems, as well as mean calculations. This is the first lesson in a 26-part series.

Take flight with a fun activity focused on graphing data on a coordinate plane. As learners study the data for Granny's hot-air balloon trip, including the time of day and the distance of the balloon from the ground, they practice...

Assign an interactive poster activity to assess your class's knowledge and skill concerning data analysis. The teacher reference provides solid questions to ask individuals or groups as they complete their posters.

What makes a good leader? Use the curriculum guide for William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar to help scholars answer that question. Pupils research the play's historical context and other background information before engaging in...

Greed is the theme of this collection of multidisciplinary activities. As a class, read The West African folktale, Anansi Goes to Lunch by Bobby Norfolk, and take part in a grand discussion about it's plot and theme. Reinforce the...

Have you ever wanted to download a great lesson, but you weren't sure if you had enough time? Scholars learn to create a function for this situation to determine when a file will finish downloading. They also learn the difference between...

Students use a shower curtain to represent a coordinate plane and then physically demonstrate their understanding or ordered pairs as they move from place to place.

Students practice basic coordinate graphing and plotting points on the coordinate axis. In this geometry lesson, students are introduced to ordered pairs, and the x and y axis.

Students solve word problems using mathematical symbols. In this algebra lesson, students collect data and analyze it. They analyze the data using a table or graph after plotting the data.

In this data analysis worksheet, students solve and complete 4 different types of problems. First, they reduce the data provided to find the means, and graph the means in a line graph. Then, students graph the data from each mixture...

Students analyze graphical forms of Eudora Welty and interpret the shorts stories in the representations. In this graphical representations lesson, students analyze the short story genre in comic strips. Students then create their own...

Students engage in a instructional activity that focuses on analytic geometry. The instructional activity asked them to apply skills of relating equations when plotting them on the coordinate plane. Students construct the equations using...
