Students develop a spreadsheet and import the information into a line graph. In this spreadsheet and line graph lesson, students develop a spreadsheet of ocean depths. They import the information into a word processed document. They...

Young scholars participate in graphing data.  In this graphing data lesson, students make a stem and leaf plot of their summer activities.  Young scholars create numerous graphs on poster boards.  Students discuss the...

Students develop a line graph based on distances that an RCX car drives in specified amounts of time. They then are given a specific amount of time for the car to drive and be asked to extrapolate the car's distance from the graph.

Students build and program a car to drive a specific challenge distance.They must at the end of the lesson, have the car that stops the closest to a challenge distance.

Three days of race car design and driving through the classroom while guessing probability could be a third graders dream. Learn to record car speed, distances traveled, and statistics by using calculation ranges using the mean, median,...

Students graph linear http://www.lessonplanet.com/review?id=180542equations. In this problem solving lesson, students calculate slope and plot ordered pairs on a coordinate grid. Using a real-life example of a walk-a-thon, students...

Students create graphs about themselves to learn more about one another. For this early childhood math lesson, students record information about one another as they make picture graphs.

Students investigate lines and patterns. In this line and pattern lesson, students discuss types of lines and work on grids. They draw a picture very lightly before filling it in with the pattern they made in the grid.

Students construct and interpret a "favorite classroom books" graph. In this literacy and math graphing activity, students choose a reduced size copy of the book cover that corresponds with the book(s) they chose to read during their...

First graders analyze objects and make a graphing picture to analyze the data. In this graphing lesson, 1st graders complete an object graph assessment, a picture graph assessment, and a bar graph assessment to analyze their given objects.

Young scholars graph fruit. In this graphing lesson plan students create a graph using fruit label stickers. Young scholars place a sticker on the graph when the fruit has been consumed.

First graders dress as their favorite storybook character. They draw a self-portrait, then place the drawing on a graph.

Students explore the greenhouse effect. They set up a simplified model of the earth and the greenhouse effect. Students compare temperatures inside a jar to temperatures outside the jar. Pupils collect information and create a line...

Students explore the concept graphing data. In this graphing data lesson, students use weather data from their local weather and some other city and graph them. Students plot the local weather vs. another city. Students record...

Students create spreadsheets and bar graphs based on results of survey of favorite holidays.

Young scholars graph linear equations and make a poster. In this algebra activity, students write the equation of a line, and identify the domain or x-value of the graph. They create picture for their project.

Whether you have your class plant seeds or begin when sprouts are visible, math skills are used here to predict and track growth over time. Straw bar graphs show plant height on a given day while the graph as a whole shows changes over...

Young scholars use gas mileage of different cars to create T charts, algebraic equations, and graphs to show which gets better mileage. In this gas mileage lesson plan, students use the graph to see which car they should buy.

Use coordinate grid paper to plot points and identify shapes that are already plotted on the paper by saying their coordinates. Pupils also measure the distance between points and play the game Battleship. There are several web links and...

Second graders observe the workings of an assembly line. They classify old crayon pieces by color, melt them in candy molds, package them, and produce advertising literature to sell the product. Students share their work with the class.

Students research items that can damage hearing. They explore statistics about the decibels of certain objects. From the information collected, students create a bar graph. They formulate ratios to determine what sounds are harmful to...

Grab your class and get them graphing polygons on a coordinate plane! They investigate the four quadrants, discover the x and y axis, and correctly plot ordered pairs. To show their comprehension, each child creates a coordinate picture...

Third graders enter the results of their survey on a spreadsheet. They construct a bar graph showing the results.

Are we there yet?  Young trip planners learn about their state and plan a trip. They will select sites to see in three cities in their state, and record associated costs in a spreadsheet. While this was originally designed as a...
