Raise the bar in your third grade class with this learning exercise on bar graphs. Youngsters view three graphs representing three different sets of data, and answer questions based on what they analyze. The first set is completed as an...

Students are introduced to the function of frequency tables and stem and leaf plots. In groups, they determine the frequency of their teacher coughing, ringing a bell or raising their hand. To end the lesson, they determine frequency...

In this math/nutrition instructional activity, the nutritional value of 3 snack foods is recorded on a data chart and represented on a bar graph. Students analyze and compare information, construct data charts and related bar graphs, and...

Students investigate linear functions. In this mathematics lesson, students plot points onto a graph by solving the equations y=x and y=mx+b by being given numbers for x and solving for y.

This activity begins with a review of linear functions and segues nicely over its fifteen examples and problems into a deep study of exponential functions. Linear and exponential growth are compared in an investment task. Data tables are...

When told to describe a line, do your pupils list its color, length, and which side is high or low? Use a worksheet that engages scholars to properly label line graphs. It then requests two applied reasoning answers.

What does dropping a ball look like as a graph? An engaging activity asks learners to record a video of dropping a ball and uploading the video to software for analysis. They compare the position of the ball to time and calculate the...

In this using tables worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 10 various types of problems that include using tables to determine information. First, they write an equation to determine the total amount. Then, students define each of...

Second graders gather and graph data.  In this graphing lesson, 2nd graders collect data and graph this information using tally charts, bar graphs, pictographs, or tables. They make predictions about the outcomes.

A great way to introduce the concepts of data collection, bar charts, and data analysis. Learners see how their teacher used the data from fifty of her friends to construct a bar chart showing their favorite toys.

Fifth graders analyze patterns and begin looking at function tables. This is a pertinent preparation for graphing patterns. In fact, consider giving your class a piece of graph paper and then teach them how!

Pre-algebra protégés critique a graph depicting Tom's trip to the bus stop. They work together to match descriptive cards to distance-time graph cards and data table cards, all of which are provided for you so you can make copies for...

Paper folding, flu spreading in a school, bacteria growth, and continuously compounded interest all provide excellent models to study exponential functions. This is a comprehensive resource that looks at many different aspects of...

How many yellow Skittles® come in a fun-size package? Use candy color data to construct a bar graph and a pie chart. Pupils analyze bar graphs of real-life data on the Texas and Massachusetts populations. As an assessment at the end...

Limits are made easy through graphs and tables. An easy-to-use interactive lets users change a function on a coordinate plane. They relate graphs and tables to the limit at a specific value.

What do guitars, candles, and helicopters have in common? They're all in this resource. Learners complete an assessment task to determine the amount of profit made in a guitar class based on given information regarding variable...

Learnersare given 26 tables and graphs in which they must fill in missing numbers and graph equations. They subtract a given value of x from a constant number, and use a number line to subtract larger numbers from smaller ones resulting...

Two-variable equations can express a constant rate situation. The lesson presents several constant rate problems. Pupils use the stated constant rate to create a linear equation, find values in a table, and graph the points. The resource...

Teach children how to make a multiplication table, and they'll be multiplying for life. Following this series of steps, young mathematicians learn to use patterns and the relationships between numbers to create...

What information can your class determine if they know the number of people attending movie showings? Using the information about the number of people at each screening, learners develop a frequency table. The pupils analyze the type of...

A guided lesson instructional activity reinforces pie graph skills using a given set of data. Each problem requires young mathematicians to create a circle graph using five colors, and to provide a key that goes along with the graph.

Sketch graphs with the Graph Sketcher. Scholars graph functions on a coordinate plane. An interactive makes it as easy as inputting the function and clicking a button.

Airline mechanics must be precise, or the consequences could be deadly. Their target ranges alter with changes in temperature and pressure. When preparing an airplane for flight, you must read a maintenance graph. The second lesson of...

Sometimes words aren't the best way to get information across to the reader. The eighth handout in the 24-part Writing the Paper series describes different type of figures and charts to display complex information in a paper....
