How random is random? Demonstrate the different random sampling methods using a hands-on activity. Pupils use various sampling techniques to choose a random sample of elements from the periodic table. They use the different samples to...

A series of assessment tasks require learners to process information and communicate solutions. Topics include graphing parabolas, solving linear-quadratic systems, factoring polynomials, and solving polynomial equations. 

Your middle schoolers will show what they know with their bodies when they become the coordinate plane in this conceptual development unit. Starting with the characteristics of the coordinate plane, learners develop their skills by...

Use a West African folktale to practice several different skills in your first grade classroom. Learners read The Clever Monkey Rides Again and focus on rhyming words, reading comprehension, measurement, art, movement, and word...

Support second graders with mastering the Common Core using this series of classroom displays. With each English language arts standard rewritten as a We can statement and accompanied by images and examples, this resource provides...

Graduation ceremonies are huge milestones, but sometimes waiting for a name to be called gets a bit boring. Scholars find the pace the announcer calls names to determine how long until a specific name is called. Calculations work in...

Learners practice an alternative form of data presentation. They practice sequencing data, identifying the stem-and-leaf, creating stem-and-leaf plots, and drawing inferences from the data by viewing the plots.

Young scholars create a tally chart. In this math and health lesson plan, students discuss healthy foods and create a tally chart showing the number of young scholars who like to eat healthy foods.

Students collect data. In this math lesson, students collect data about recyclable materials. Students develop a plan that will help the environment. Recycling plastic containers is discussed.

Fourth graders describe weather data using the mean, median and mode. In this mean, median and mode lesson, 4th graders understand how to calculate data using mean, median and mode and why they would use each one.

Middle schoolers draw cross sections of given contour maps. In this math lesson plan, students interpret the different symbols used in the map. They determine slope and steepness through direct measurement.

Students use Cartesian coordinates. In this graphing lesson students use simple formulae, interpret coordinates, and create graphical representations. They express their work algebraically.

Students investigate recycling. In this environmental lesson, students design a recycling program for their school. Students collect data about how much recyclable materials they use in one week. Students also survey classmates about how...

Students study graphs and learn how to display information into a graph. In this graph lesson plan, students construct a graph of their own sorted data, and pick out things in graphs that are inconsistent.

Students identify the properties of an isosceles triangle. In this geometry lesson, students find the midpoint, median and angle bisector of a triangle. They construct angle bisectors and measure missing angles.

Fifth graders interpret data. In this mode and range instructional activity, 5th graders define mode and range and practice finding them given a set of data.

Students work with data about commercial fishing ofsalmon in Alaska. Students gather data, graph it, and analyze it.

Students discover the value of Pi.  In this value of Pi lesson, students measure the circumference and diameter of various circles on their graphing calculator.  Students find the ratio of the circumference to the diameter and...

Ninth graders graph linear functions using coordinate points. In this algebra lesson, 9th graders plot points and graph a line. They use the slope intercept form to graph their equation and evaluate points as solution to the function.

Students write equations for their graphs. In this algebra lesson, students analyze graphs after they plot them using coordinate points and write an equation for the line given the slope and y-intercept. They express their answers using...

Students examine the atmospheric data for CO2. In this web-based atmospheric lesson, student follow instructions to examine and plot on-line scientific data about the CO2 levels in our atmosphere and analyze the changes found in the data.

Students explore the concept graphing data. In this graphing data lesson, students use weather data from their local weather and some other city and graph them. Students plot the local weather vs. another city. Students record...

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....

Pupils investigate Income and gender preference. In this statistic lesson, students collect data of Income to see if one gender makes more than the other. Pupils examine the data and draw conclusions.
