Math modeling is made easy with the first installment of a 16-part module that teaches pupils to model real-world situations as linear relationships. They create graphs, tables of values, and equations given verbal descriptions.

This performance task gives the population model of different types of flies and asks scholars to analyze the two populations. After interpreting the functions individually, participants compare the two populations and find the time...

Eighth graders analyze graphs on a worksheet and in newspapers and magazines. In this graphs lesson plan, 8th graders also record their thoughts in a journal.

Students make, read and interpret circle graphs.

Students graph their linear equations. In this algebra instructional activity, students examine their lines and relate it to the slope or rate of change. They relate the steepness of the line to the slope being positive, negative or zero.

For this circle graph worksheet, students complete problems involving many circle graphs including a compass rose, degrees, and more. Students complete 7 activities.

Students investigate circle and bar graphs.  In this middle school mathematics lesson, students determine which kind of graph is suitable for a given situation and create circle and bar graphs.

Students collect, graph and analyze data. In this statistics lesson, students use circle, pie, bar and lines to represent data. They analyze the data and make predictions bases on the scatter plots created.

First graders learn how to display data using a bar graph. In this bar graph lesson, 1st graders use data from a t-shirt color survey to make a bar graph. They also make an animal bar graph before interpreting the information.

First graders work with manipulatives to solve various math problems by using concrete objects to solve a list of problems . They create and evaluate bar graphs and write a statement about the information on their bar graph.

In this graph worksheet, students interpret given line graphs. They determine the range, and identify the range in a set of data. This one-page worksheet contains approximately 14 problems.

In this table worksheet, students read questions and interpret tables. Questions include information concerning unemployment, oil imports, and foreign students.  This multiple-choice worksheet contains 10 problems. ...

In this math skills worksheet, students solve 9 multiple choice math problems that require them to read and interpret charts. Students may view the correct answers.

First graders complete activities with the story One Monday Morning in the Macmillan/McGraw Hill Textbook. In this data lesson plan, 1st graders read the story and gather data to create a picture graph. They read the graph and...

In this pictogram learning exercise, students read and analyze a pictogram about dogs, hedgehogs, birds and butterflies and then answer 6 short answer questions. Students conduct a similar survey on pets owned by their friends and put...

Students get the opportunity to investigate the concept of data collecting. They explore how to tally and read a bar graph. Vocabulary about data is also be included. At the end of the lesson, individual students collect data independently.

What kinds of birds live in your area? Read a book about birds to your learners and explore their feeding patterns. Charts and graphs are provided in this three page packet, but consider assigning the basic questions if using with young...

Students participate in a WebQuest in which they must determine which amusement park is the "median priced" park. Students visit park websites to accumulate prices for parking, activities, restaurants, and gift shops.

Second graders explore clouds. They read The Cloud Book by Tomie dePola. Students sort the cloud pictures into three categories. Students create a graph using the cloud pictures. They use Excel to create a bar graph.

Even rivers have tides. Older elementary schoolers will discuss the Hudson River and how weather, water craft, and the ocean cause tidal fluctuation. They will examine a series of line graphs that depict tidal fluctuation, then analyze...

Learners compare and contrast two routes selected for a virtual field trip. They create a data table of educational activities, lodging, and meal costs using Microsoft Excel software.

Locating and synthesizing information is an essential part of the research process but can be overwhelming for many young writers. Eliminate some of the stress and confusion, this resource suggests, by separating these steps. To focus...

Learners work with the strategy of breaking a problem into parts in order to solve it. They write an expression with parentheses for each of the first three problems, and solve the problem, and use information from a table to answer the...

Pupils interpret maps and graph data related to volcanic ash. Then they analyze the importance of wind speed and the dangers of the ash to both life, air temperature, and technology.
