Is it possible to solve quadratic equations by factoring? It is, and your class will graph quadratic equation and functions too. They perform transformation on their graphs showing increasing and decreasing intervals, domain, and range....

This instructional activity begins with a review of linear functions and segues nicely over its fifteen examples and problems into a deep study of exponential functions. Linear and exponential growth are compared in an investment task....

Learners take turns shooting baskets and creating scatterplots based on the data. They create two graphs and look for possible correlation in the data for each graph.

Will it sink or will it float? Learners predict the outcome as they drop random objects into a container of water. Then, they keep track of the results and record the data in a t-chart to draw a final conclusion.

Examine multiple ways to solve algebraic equations. Pupils will generate a problem solving strategy that addresses the prompt given by the teacher. They will then share their problem solving strategy with the class. Graphic organizers,...

Third graders take poll and sort data, enter the data to create a spreadsheet and create bar and pie graphs.

Youngsters use a graphing calculator to assist in creating a function table. They graph the function on a coordinate plane. They explore the relationship between the domain and range in the graph. This four-page worksheet contains two...

Middle and high schoolers complete and solve 12 various types of problems. First, they express the output as a function of the input in each table. Then, pupils evaluate for the given variable when the value is as stated. In addition,...

Students review graphing terminology and how to plot data points, how to input data into a spreadsheet, and how to make a chart using a computer.

First graders explore collecting data. They collect data using a data collection sheet and enter the data into Excel. Students create graphs using Excel. They share their graphs with the class.

Students analyze data and make inferences. In this algebra lesson, students collect and analyze data as they apply it to the real world.

Middle schoolers practice making charts and graphs from data on spreadsheets. Individually, they create a graph representing the latest information on voter registration. They answer questions and analyze the data to end the lesson.

Young scholars compile statistics from high school or other football team and construct a spreadsheet on which to record their findings. Using Chart Wizard to analyze the data, they construct charts and graphs for a visual display of the...

Students use commercial software to organize and visually display data to draw conclusions; students use graphing software to create several types of graphs illustrating the number of each color of M&M's in one bag.

Students examine newspapers for graphs. They collect and sort data that is of interest to them. They enter data into a database and make comparisons using the information.

Young scholars create line graphs for given data in Microsoft Excel. Students follow step by step instructions on how to create their graph, including how to create a trend line. Young scholars print graphs without trend lines and...

Second graders conduct survey and sort data according to categories, construct bar graph with intervals of 1, and write a few sentences about their graphs.

Students identify function using tables of data. In this algebra lesson, students create a tale of point and plot on a coordinate plane. They analyze the graph as being a function or not.

Young scholars graph the varying sizes of dinosaurs.  In this math and dinosaur lesson plan, students view dinosaur models and compare the different shapes and sizes of the dinosaurs.  Young scholars complete a dinosaur math...

Students differentiate between a relation and a function. For this algebra lesson, students identify a pair of coordinates as being a relation or a function. They analyze graphs for function as they solve word problems.

High schoolers collect and graph data. For this statistics lesson, students analyze their plotted data using a scatter plot. They identify lines as having positive, negative or no correlation.

Students collect and graph their data. In this precalculus lesson, students identify the input and out of a function. They find the domain and range and the inverse of a function.

Learners run a computer simulation. They collect data as they work and use the data to create an annual report for their business. Several different simulations could be used for this project. It is desirable for students to do this...

Pupils solve equations and label it as a function or not. In this algebra lesson, students make a table of values and graph their equation. They identify the domain and range of each graph.
