Identify the slope of a linear equation in this algebra lesson. Middle schoolers graph linear equations using slopes and intercepts. They identify the slope as being positive, negative, no slope, or undefined.

Learners test Leonardo da Vinci's view of the human body by measuring various body parts using a tape measure. They create a data table and a scatter plot and then analyze and interpret the results using a graphing calculator.

Learners gather and analyze data from sports teams. In this measures of central tendency lesson plan, students gather information from websites about sports team performance. Learners analyze and draw conclusions from this data. This...

Run a simulated airplane manufacturing plant with your pupils as the builders! Learners build Lego airplane models and collect data on the rate of production, comparing the number produced to the number defective. Using linear...

Does writing the name of a color in a different colored ink affect one's ability to read it? Scholars design an experiment to answer this question. They collect the data, analyze the statistics, and draw a conclusion based on...

The battle of the sexes? Scholars first examine data on hurricane-related deaths and create graphical displays. They then use the data and displays to consider whether hurricanes with female names result in more deaths than hurricanes...

Scholars apply knowledge learned over their high school math courses in order to determine their college readiness. The 20-page resource emphasizes applied problem solving.

Students examine the path a satellite follows as it orbits the earth. In this space science lesson, students use a globe as they illustrate a satellite in its orbital plane, then plot points on the satellite's path on the globe to see...

Students convert degrees between two different units. In this algebra lesson, students graph linear equations and identify the line of best fit. They use their line of best fit to make predictions given a set of data.

Adjust this lesson to fit either beginning or more advanced learners. Build a scatter plot, determine appropriate model (linear, quadratic, exponential), and then extend to evaluate the model with residuals. This problem uses real-world...

Young scholars investigate the growth rate of a man named Bob Wadlow.  In this growth rate of a man lesson, students determine if the growth rate of this particular man was normal or abnormal.  Young scholars bring in data of...

Young scholars develop their globe and map skills, In this geography lesson, students examine the Vietnam War as they complete an activity that requires them to plot latitude and longitude.

Use this task as an exit ticket for your eight graders during the geometry unit. All they need to do is identify the coordinates of a point reflected over y=2000. 

Whether it's dark, delightful, or somber, set the mood with William Golding's Lord of the Flies. High-schoolers practice descriptive writing by creating the appropriate mood for an original scene, starring one of the book's main...

Learners investigate different correlations. In this algebra instructional activity, students analyze graphs and identify the lines as having positive, negative or no correlation. They calculate the line of best fit using a scatter plot.

Young scholars calculate the amount of minutes they get charged for each month. In this algebra activity, students relate linear equations to talking on the phone and the cost to do so. They create graph to plot the cost and usage of the...

Young scholars define patterns, relation and function. In this algebra lesson, students find the slope of a line and write equations of line. They model the slope using real life scenarios.

Students identify properties of a line. In this algebra lesson plan, students differentiate between functions and nonfunctions. They use the slope and y intercept to graph their lines.

Students graph lines using the calculator. In this algebra lesson, students graph lines of equations in the form y=mx+b. They input equations into the TI Calculator and graph using the slope and intercept. They analyze the graph for...

Learners create and develop a travel mug. They create visuals and a three dimensional infomercial. They apply an engineering design and demonstrate knowledge of thermodynamics involved in heat transfer. They illustrate Newton's Law of...

Learners create number lines using decimals and whole numbers. In this algebra lesson, students graph and solve linear equations. They plot ordered pairs on a coordinate plane correctly.

Students collect and Analyze data. In this statistics instructional activity, students identify the line of best fit of the graph. They classify lines as having positive, negative and no correlation.

Students compare and order integers on an umber line. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between positive and negative numbers. They plot point in the correct order on a number line.

Students find the mean, median and mode. In hs statistics activity, students collect, plot and analyze data. The identify the effect the central tendency have on the data and line.
