In this problem solving learning exercise, 4th graders study the data found on a table involving the number of cans collected during a fund-raiser. Students utilize the concepts of addition and subtraction to solve 8 sentence word problems.

In this circle graphs learning exercise, students analyze a data table about the activities in a day. Students then use this data to make a circle graph. Students answer 6 questions about the graph.

Students explore functions, function rules, and data tables. They explore terms of linear functions. Students use computers to analyze the functions. Students write short sentences to explain data tables and simple algebraic expressions.

In this graphing instructional activity, students solve 12 problems in which data on a table is presented on a bar graph. This page is intended to be an online activity, but may be completed with paper and pencil.

Learn how to display data. Young data analysts watch a video to review how to create cumulative frequency histograms and box plots. They work on a set of questions to practice producing these data displays.  

In this analyzing data sets worksheet, 11th graders solve and complete 35 various types of problems that include the analysis of data given. First, they determine the equation that best describes the data shown in a table. Then, students...

In this data analysis worksheet, 3rd graders answer eight short answer questions based on the information on the table. Students use the data from the table to answer the questions.

Students create a simple table in order to solve a problem. As a class, they create a simple data table in order to discover the number of letters in each student's name. This data is interpreted in order to answer questions and make...

Sixth graders determine the mean, range median and mode of a set of numbers and display them. In this data lesson plan students form a set of data and use computer spreadsheet to display the information. They extend of the process...

Second graders graph data about their classmates. In this data analysis lesson, 2nd graders ask each other several questions about their hair color and eye color. Students graph the data that they collected.

Find the percent of middle schoolers who want the ability to freeze time. The 21st installment in a series of 25 has groups collect a random sample of respondents who answer a question about superpowers. Using sample statistics,...

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...

Forgive me, I regress. Building upon previous modeling activities, the class examines models using the regression function on a graphing calculator. They use the modeling process to interpret the context and to make predictions...

Does a linear or exponential model fit the data better? Guide your class through an exploration to answer this question. Pupils create an exponential and linear model for a data set and draw conclusions, based on predictions and the...

A series of math and science activities feature M&M's® as manipulatives to help kids work through equations. The resource includes exercises on finding averages, percent of compositions, moles in chemical reactions, genotypes and...

The greater the latitude, the less of the Earth is north. Scholars graph the relationship between the latitude and the percentage of the Earth that is north of the latitude. Using the graph and the table, class members interpret values...

I just bought that car, how can its value decrease already? Individuals use the data of a depreciating car value to create an exponential decay model. They then compare exponential decay and growth equations.

There is power in spreadsheet formulas and learners use this power to model quadratic data. Given a scatterplot of a parabola, pupils create formulas in a spreadsheet to populate the data. The formulas they use lead to an understanding...

Over the years, data analysis has been important. Looking back to the 2004 AP® Statistics Form B free-response questions, pupils and teachers see the importance of analysis of data sets. The six questions contain analysis of data on...
