Use this graphing linear functions instructional activity to have learners graph three linear equations. They use a table of values, the intercept method, and slope-intercept form to graph three functions.
In this linear functions worksheet, students graph 3 linear functions. Students graph each function by making a table of values given a linear function in standard form.
Explore the concept of graphing proportional relationships. Young mathematicians work in pairs to discuss why proportional relationships produce a linear graph.
Middle and high schoolers perform transformation on all their graphs. In this geometry lesson, pupils plot on a coordinate plane and rotate their graphs using different symmetry. They calculate the area of different shapes.
A hands-on lesson using the TI-CBR Motion Detector to provide information to graph and analyze. The class uses this information to calculate the slope of motion graphs and differentiate scalar and vector quantities. There is a real-world activity of a Roof Manufacturer's Test in regards to the pitch of roofs, as well as several other real-world scenarios.
Here is a widely applicable set of materials to enhance any reading task. You'll find graphic organizers, response to literature activities, writing prompts, a reading schedule, study guides, a story plot flow chart, and a character map. Resource is designated for Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men, but these materials would work for any literary text, at home or in the classroom.
Calculate comparison of two rates using distance and time. Learners graph the data of different speeds and then compare rates of one-third meter per second and three meters per second.
Learners read a thermometer. In this graphing thermometer lesson students record the temperature around school. they put the data into a bar graph. Learners interpret the temperature graph.
Young data collectors research and explore population growth of a North Carolina county. After collecting data and researching historical events, young scholars organize the information and figure the percent of change. In addition, they compute the mean, median, mode and outliers. Learners insert data into a spreadsheet, create a bar graph of the information, and write a summary of their findings. This lesson contains some ideas that could be modified for other locations.
Wow! This resource would be a terrific way to cover graphing with elementary school classes. The presentation covers bar graphs, pie charts, pictographs, and line graphs. it also focuses on scale, interval, and information gathering. There are some great questions to test pupils ability to read a graph.
