Students solve equations dealing with best fit lines. In this algebra lesson, students solve problems by analyzing data from a scatterplot, and define it as positive, negative or no correlation. They classify slopes the same way as...

Students explore the concept of logarithms.  In this logarithms lesson plan, students graph logarithms on their Ti-Nspire calculator.  Students describe the shapes of their graphs by identifying slope, y-intercepts, and...

Young scholars gather data on sports team and create a box and whisper plot. In this data collection lesson, students find the median, the quartile range, and relationships between variables.

Students 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.  Students bring in data of their height...

Learners investigate relations in this algebra instructional activity. They graph the set of ordered pairs that determine a relation. Using a TI-83 Plus, your learners will enter the coordinates in a list, create a scatter plot, and...

Trace the links between a variety of math concepts in this far-reaching unit. Ideas that seem very different on the outset (like the distance formula and rigid transformations) come together in very natural and logical ways. This...

Don't be dense—use a robust resource. The second installment of a five-part Floaters and Sinkers unit has learners determine the densities of several objects. As part of the activity, they learn the displacement method for finding...

Explore the mathematical relationship between a solvent and solute. Learners use technology to measure the cooling patterns of a solvent with varying concentrations of solute. Through an analysis of the data, pupils realize that the...

In this penny toss learning exercise, students collect statistical data by tossing pennies and then create a scatter plot of the data. They use formulas for exponential growth and decay and then plot the function. This two-page...

Students investigate different correlations. In this algebra lesson, 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.

Students explore the concept of line of best fit. In this line of best fit lesson, students find lines of best fit in examples about riding your bike home from school and dentistry. Students find two data points and find the line of best...

In this scatterplots worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 6 different word problems with different sets of data. First, they sort the data set in increasing order and find the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and...

Ninth graders explore data analysis.  In this Algebra I lesson, 9th graders collect and organize data to create a scatter plot.  Students use the regression feature of the calculator to find the line of best fit and use the...

In this scatterplots worksheet, students look at 4 graphs and determine the correlation between the data. Students then review 8 scenarios and decided the type of correlation.

Students investigate the concepts of polynomial and rational functions. They identify the general patterns used to solve problems. The use of real world contexts in the problems helps to promote engagement and understanding of how the...

Students work with data about commercial fishing ofsalmon in Alaska. Students gather data, graph it, and analyze it.

Students use the data from USA TODAY Snapshot "World population milestones" to explore and explain the trends in the world population.

Students read about the changes in the "new money" and then create a graph to represent various combinations of currency produced.

Students calculate the equation of the line of best fit. In this statistics instructional activity, students create scatter plots and find the line of best fit going through their data. They make predictions and draw conclusions.

In this exponential learning exercise, students gather information from an experiment and plot the data in a scatter plot. Using given formulas, they plot an equation of a line and then compare the graphs. Students observe exponential...

Students examine population growth and collect data. In this statistics lesson plan, students create a scatter plot to represent the different species found in the water and are being harvested. They graph their data and draw conclusion...

Pupils engage in the practice of creating a scatter plot with the data obtained from measuring different resting heart rates. The data is used to create the table that is translated into a graph. The lesson gives instructions for the use...

Students collect and organize data, make a scatterplot, fit a curve to the appropriate parent function, and interpret the results. Students translate among the various representations of the quadratic function, formulate equations, use a...
