Young statisticians are introduced to box plots and quartiles. They use an activity and discussion with supplemental exercises to help them explore how data can be graphically represented.

Young statisticians use and interpret measures of center and spread such as mean, median, and mode as well as range. They use box plots to represent their data and answer questions regarding the correspondence between data sets and the...

A helpful and versatile worksheet requires young mathematicians to analyze data in order to create graphs and answer questions. Additionally, it prompts learners to find the mean, median, mode, and range of some of the data sets.

Middle schoolers discover how to relate collected data with a box and whiskers graph in a number of formats. They collect, organize, create, and interpret a box and whiskers graph. Pupils interpret the difference between sets of data,...

Youngsters count, classify, and estimate quantities using buttons after a read aloud of The Button Box by Margarette S. Reid. They discuss the difference between guessing and estimating. Based on an experiment, they predict the...

Young scholars make a table and plot their data on a graph. In this algebra lesson plan, students graph piecewise functions using the given equations along with the restricted domain. They calculate the rate of change.

Class members study the size of classmates' feet and perform a statistical analysis of their data. They solve for central tendencies, quartiles, and spread for the entire group as well as subgroups. They then write a conclusion based on...

Seventh graders review different types of graphs such as bar graphs, line graphs, box & whisker plots. As a class, they read a story and construct graphs to solve the data in the story. Students play "Graph Jeopardy" which requires...

Sixth graders view a Stacked Graph, and discuss what it shows. Students discuss the basics of graphing: labels, intervals, legends x and y axis... Students create individual stacked graphs from provided information. Students view a...

Students make a table and graph plotting points. In this algebra lesson plan, students graph linear equations on a coordinate plane. They calculate the rate of change and analyze the graph for extrapolation.

Collections of data represented in stem and leaf plots are organized by young statisticians as they embark some math engaging activities.

Now this lesson sounds fun! Students throw a ball, film it as it soars through the air, and use a spreadsheet to collect data. A scatterplot is created to produce a quadratic regression equation, an equation in vertex form, and an...

Eighth graders measure in feet and inches and convert to explore the relationship between the converted measurements. In this measurement lesson, 8th graders use the whisker and box plot to represent the measurement of a cat. ...

Students use a stopwatch to collect information for a scatterplot.   In this fastest legs lessons, students collect data through the taking of measurements, create and find a median number. Students develop an equation and...

Middle schoolers are introduced to histograms, bar graphs, and the concept of class interval. They use an activity and three discussions with supplemental exercises to help students explore how data can be graphically represented (and...

The lesson focuses on the ideas of dot plot representations and the mean absolute deviation of data sets.

Scholars research arm span to determine who gives the best bear hugs. They use data from a national study to find the standard statistics for arm span. It includes mean, median, quartiles, spread, standard deviation, and more.

Students graph linear equations. In this algebra lesson, students create tables from an equation and plot their points. They graph the equation using the slope and y-intercept. They rewrite word problems using linear equations to...

Learners collect and analyze data. In this statistics lesson, students graph their data and make inferences from the collected data. They display their data using graphs, bar graphs, circles graphs and Venn diagrams.

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

Students analyze different data in percentage form. In this statistics lesson, students plot data using box-plots, dotplot, and histogram. They compare and contrast the collected data using the boxplot.

Young graphers decide where to plot a point given a specific ordered pair. The problems vary in difficulty, beginning with simpler coordinates, and ending with plotting and connecting coordinates. Each graph is labeled with the...

Young mathematicians collect data on the arm spans of classmates. Then they sort the data by measures of center, spread, and standard deviation. Finally, they compare groups, such as boys and girls, to interpret any differences. 

Students evaluate equations and identify graphs. In this statistics lesson, students identify plotted points on a coordinate plane as having a positive, negative or no correlation. They complete basic surveys, plot their results and...
