A 27-page packet full of math games and activities builds on algebra, measurement, geometry, fractional, and graphing skills. Young mathematicians participate in math games collaboratively, promoting teamwork and skills practice.

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...

The fox population chases the rabbit population. Groups model the populations of foxes and rabbits with two trigonometric functions. Individuals graph both trigonometric models on the same graph, and then teams determine an explanation...

Seeing is believing. Given several bivariate data sets, learners make scatter plots using the online SeeIt program to visualize the correlation. To get a more complete picture of the topic, they research their own data set and perform an...

Is the gestation length of an animal a predictor of the average life expectancy of that animal? Learners analyze similar data for more than 50 different animals. They choose a data display and draw conclusions from their graphs.

Polar opposites might not work together—but polar coordinates do! The interactive provides learners the opportunity to graph trigonometric and algebraic functions using polar coordinates. The program takes either individual data points...

An interactive lesson helps individuals learn to graph inequalities in two variables. Scholars can adjust the interactive to present the inequalities in standard or slope-intercept form.

Develop a model for prep. The resource provides examples of how items reflect modeling and data analysis for Smarter Balanced assessments. Items use on-grade or below-grade content to focus on the modeling aspect. The questions revolve...

How good is the fit? Using an interactive, classmates create a scatter plot of bivariate data and fit their own lines of best fit. The applet allows pupils to display the regression line along with the correlation coefficient. As a final...

Students explore the concept of mathematical models. For this mathematical model lesson, students create a mathematical model from data from 4 cities over 15 months. Students are told they are working for a weather station. Students...

Learners create table to display GED Testing data located in paragraph provided by teacher, use information in table to create appropriate graph, and determine percentage difference between passing scores and failing scores.

Learners complete three parts of an "Organizning and Reading Data" worksheet. First, they go over the rubric to determine the work will be scored. They organize data by taking tallies, make a pictograph and a bar graph using the data....

Students differentiate between bar graphs, line graphs, pictographs and bar graphs. After participating in a hands-on cookie activity, students label and draw their own graphs.

Students draw line graphs. In this math lesson plan, students interpret minimum wage data and graph the data in a line graph. Students predict the next minimum wage and figure the earnings for a 40 hour work week for someone earning the...

Middle schoolers create and conduct a survey about favorite foods, gather and represent the data, interpret data and make predictions to present to the class. They create and use interview questions to gather data. Pupils are...

Students relate data to coordinate graphs and plot points on this graph. They use minimum wage data to construct the graph. Students decide appropriate time intervals for the graphs. They share graphs with their classmates.

In this probability and statistics activity, students work with a family member to construct graphs based on real life data. The two page activity contains three questions. Answers are not included.

Students use commercial software to organize and visually display data to draw conclusions; students use graphing software to create several types of graphs illustrating the number of each color of M&M's in one bag.

Fourth graders investigate the concept of graphing and comparing different types of data using pictographs, line graphs, scatter plots, etc... They gather data and make interpretations while examining the medium of how it is displayed.

In this mathematics worksheet, 6th graders use a line graph to illustrate how a measure of data changes and explain their reasoning. Then they use a bar graph to compare pieces of data and a pictograph to compare data.

Eighth graders investigate the concepts of probability while performing data analysis. They apply statistical methods in order to measure or predict some possible outcomes. The information is collected and graphed, 8th graders analyze...

Students make a bar graph. In this graphing lesson, students discuss why bar graphs are used and are shown bar graph examples. Students create their own bar graph to compare the heights of different things around the world. Students...

Students investigate line graphs.   In this middle school mathematics lesson, students compare and contrast different types of graphs and create line graphs based on the data provided.

Students investigate data and recyclable materials. In this math lesson, students save recyclable materials and create a graph of the materials. Students discuss how they could help the environment by recycling.
