Second graders graph data based on a class survey of their favorite breakfast foods. In this graphing lesson plan, 2nd graders take a class survey of their favorite breakfast foods. Then they take that data and put it into a computer...

A comprehensive lesson on acceleration awaits your physicists and engineers! Two YouTube videos pique their interest, then sample F=ma problems are worked and graphed. The highlight of the lesson is the building of a Lou-Vee air car!...

Young scholars use data from the Rossi X-ray Tiiming Explorer (RXTE) satellite to analyze and graph.

Young scholars compare and contrast the use of bar and pie graphs with the same data. They create a data set by surveying all students in the class using sticky notes to make a table on the board. Then, each student creates a bar and pie...

Students identify aquatic insects. In this organism activity, students locate aquatic insects near a local waterway and collect them. Students graph the amount of insects that they collected.

Students differentiate between exponential growth and decay. In this algebra activity, students solve exponential equations using properties of exponents. They use the Ti calculator to graph and analyze their functions.

Students are introduced to the concept of scatter plots after reviewing the various types of graphs. In groups, they analyze the type of information one can receive from a scatter plot and identify the relationship between the x and y...

More people, more garbage! Young environmentalists graph population growth against the amount of garbage generated per year and find a linear model that best fits the data. This is an older resource that could benefit from more recent...

Scholars learn to create scatter plots and investigate any relationships that exists between the variables with a lesson that also show them that statistical relationships do not necessarily indicate a cause-and-effect...

Discover how trend lines can be useful in understanding relationships between variables with a instructional activity that covers how to informally fit a trend line to model a relationship given in a scatter plot. Scholars use the trend...

Pupils convert from one system of linear measure to another, graphing data from a table to a coordinate graph, using a graph to make predictions.

Students collect data using the CBL. In this statistics lesson, students predict the type of graph that will be created based on the type of activity the person does. The graph represents heart rate depending the level of activity.

First graders explore counting and classification. They sort leaves, create graphs, write sentences for the data in the graphs, develop graphs for shapes, favorite animals, birthdays, and participate in a die prediction game.

Students explore how mathematical data is used to summarize and illustrate everyday life. They apply mathematical concepts and skills to analyze data. Students conduct a five question survey of 50 people or more and graph the data.

Students collect and analyze data using a graph. In this algebra lesson, students explain their findings orally and with a graph. They use their knowledge to solve real life scenarios.

Students examine population growth and collect data. In this statistics lesson plan, students create a scatter plot to represent the different species found in the water and are being harvested. They graph their data and draw conclusion...

Students analyze graphs to compare cell phone plans. For this algebra lesson, students work together to analyze phone plans and report the best phone plan. Students develop tables and graphs.

Students explore the concept of statistical data. In this statistical data lesson, students read an article about the dangers of peanut butter to those who are allergic. Students perform a taste test of two different brands of peanut...

Young scholars develop a formula that describes the functional relationship of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. Working with a partner, they measure the diameter and circumference of circular objects in order to discover...

Students research different statistics to do with the Mississippi River. They answer questions about finding data and collect it by conducting research. The research is used to construct a data table. Then students use the table to...

Learners describe graphically, algebraically and verbally real-world phenomena as functions; identify the independent and the dependent variable. They translate among graphic, algebraic, and verbal representations of relations and graph...

Students collect data on the time of the ferry. For this algebra lesson, students use the data to predict a ferry schedule. They also compute the depth where oxygen would be needed when diving.

Students make bar graphs and identify items in the bar graphs as being likely, certain, or impossible. In this bar graphs lesson plan, students answer questions about the bar graphs using reasoning and communication skills.

Students take a survey then use the information gained from the survey to help plan a typical Thanksgiving dinner for our last day of class. They create a graph which corresponds the the data gathered during interviews.
