This is a fantastic lesson! Learners create a data table to track and measure the speed of robots as they drag race around a course. They put systems of linear equations in recognizable, conceptual, and mathematical terms, then graph their data on a coordinate plane.
In this quantitative data worksheet, pupils compute measures of central tendency, draw vertical line diagrams, and compare collected data. This 23-page worksheet contains approximately 100 multi-step problems. Explanations and examples are provided throughout the worksheet.
Statisticians analyze a data set of student IQs by finding measures of central tendency and dispersion such as mean, median, mode, and quartiles. They practice using a graphing calculator to find the values and analyze box plots and histograms for the data.
Learners explore data collection and graphing. They will work in groups to determine the best tool to use for hand span measurement. They also collect hand span data and the whole class organizes data on a plot line graph.
Second and third graders explore the size of their bodies. They use string to measure parts of their body in small groups. After measuring with string, students measure the string with a ruler. They then glue their string to a piece of paper and write down the measurement.
Investigate perimeter and area of polygons! In this measurement lesson, learners use index cards to create rectangles and trace their hand to estimate its area and perimeter.
This lesson about area and perimeter starts with direct instruction and moves to guided practice. There is an activity for learners to practice independently when they teacher feels the time is right. Two closing questions are provided: How can a cook use perimeter to help determine how much of some foods to make? How can a cook use area to help determine how much of some foods to make?
Learners explore linear measurement. They choose appropriate measuring tools, measure three classroom items, and record their results. A class discussion ensues in which everyone decides the best way to present their data.
Once your scholars have a grasp on telling time, challenge them to add and subtract intervals using number lines and Judy Clocks. Using a start and end time, learners determine time duration on their own clocks or number lines. A worksheet is included to give them independent practice, and extension activities provide more emphasis on practical use of this skill. If Judy Clocks are not available, simply have learners create their own paper clocks using brads for rotating arms!
Students solve problems of dilation and velocity. In this geometry lesson, students apply the Pythagorean Theorem to solve problems and relate it to time and velocity.
