Curated OER
Introduction to Correlations
Students investigate correlations between human body height and other human features. They select ten subjects and record each subject's age and gender and measure for height, wingspan, distance, and size of hands. After measuring, they...

Scatterplots
In this scatterplots worksheet, 9th graders solve 18 different types of problems related to scatterplots. First, they represent a two numerical variable on a scatterplot and describe how the data points are distributed. Then, students...
Curated OER
Paired Conjunctions
Learners identify parallel parts of sentences, meaning of sentences, and determine positive, negative, and choice conjunctions. Conjunction identification is the main focus of this language arts worksheet.

Introduction to Scatter Plots and Correlation
Students examine the concept of scatter plots. They compare baseball statistics to locate the ones that correlate with winning, and identify the positive, negative, and no correlation in sets of data using MS Excel.
Curated OER
Means of Growth
Students collect and graph data. In this statistics lesson, students analyze their plotted data using a scatter plot. They identify lines as having positive, negative or no correlation.
Curated OER
Lines of Fit
Students graph an equation and analyze the data. In this algebra lesson, students graph scatter plots and identify the line of best fit using positive correlation, negative correlation an d no correlation. They apply their data analysis...

Approximating a Line of Best Fit
You may be able to see patterns visually, but mathematics quantifies them. Here learners find correlation in scatterplots and write equations to represent that relationship. They fit a line to the data, find two points on the line, and...

Multiple Linear Regression
You'll have no regrets when you use the perfect lesson to teach regression! An interactive resource has individuals manipulate the slope and y-intercept of a line to match a set of data. Learners practice data sets with both positive and...
Curated OER
A POSITIVELY NEGATIVE EXPERIENCE
Students work in cooperative learning groups to discover how Gauss's law applies to conductors and dielectric materials. They use an electroscope to detect electrostatic charge and determine location of charges during static charge.

Scatter Plots and Line of Best Fit – TV Task
This handout begins by asking your statisticians to form hypotheses on the correlation between test scores and student height and test scores and the number of hours watching TV. Then using specific data, your class will create scatter...
School Mathematics Project
Resource Sheets
This extensive and far-reaching collection of worksheets puts a new twist on many basic concepts. Learners use multiplication to trace a path from one point to another, tile a plane by converting between improper and proper fractions,...
Curated OER
Line of Best Fit
Students identify the line of best fit. In this statistics lesson, students collect and analyze data. They calculate the regression equations and identify the different types of correlation.
IB Psychology
Key Terms Traffic Lights
How much does your class know about psychology? What about empirical evidence? If they could use some time to learn the essentials of psychology, use a quick reference sheet to note what they know before the test, after the unit, and at...
