Seventh graders graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. They create a scatterplot. Additionally, they determine the line of best fit and investigate the slope of the line. Multiple resources are provided. An excellent resource!

You aced the first test, so your score on the second one shouldn't matter, right? Young pupils first draw a best fit line on a provided scatter plot showing test scores for two different tests. They then evaluate five...

Students use graphing calculators to create scatter plots of given baseball data. They also determine percentages and ratios, slope, y-intercepts, etc. all using baseball data and statistics.

Pupils are introduced to the concept of scatter plots after reviewing the various types of graphs. In groups, they analyze the type of information one can receive from a scatter plot and identify the relationship between the x and y...

Seventh graders investigate how to make and set up a scatter plot. For this statistics lesson, 7th graders collect data and plot it. They analyze their data and discuss their results.

In this scatter plots worksheet, students complete multiple choice questions about scatter plots having to do with money, free throws, exercising, and more. Students complete 8 problems.

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.

Students create a scatter plot for bivariate data and find the trend  line to describe the correlation for the sports teams. In this scatter plot lesson, students analyze data, make predictions,and use observations about sports data...

Pupils collect and analyze data. In this statistics instructional activity, learners create a scatter plot from their collected data. They use, tables and graphs to analyze the data and mae decisions.

Learners 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. Learners develop an equation and...

Students are able to identify the characteristics of a variety of graphs (i.e. bar graph, line graph, pie graph, scatter plot, population pyramids, etc.) They recognize how the type of data to be presented plays a role in choosing the...

Using either data provided or data that has been collected, young mathematicians graph linear functions to best fit their scatterplot. They also analyze their data and make predicitons based on the data. This lesson is intended as a...

How good is the fit? Using an interactive, classmates create a scatter plot of bivariate data and fit their own lines of best fit. The applet allows pupils to display the regression line along with the correlation coefficient. As a final...

Using the TI-Nspire calculator, statisicians identify outliers and their effect on the least-squares regression line. In finding the line of best fit, they determine what points will affect the least squares regressions and what points...

Playing with matches (unlit, of course) becomes an engaging learning experience in this fun instructional unit. Teach pupils how to apply properties of exponential functions to solve problems. They differentiate between quadratic and...

  Explore the connection between a finite graph, a directed graph, and a matrix. Graph lines and identify the relationship of matrices in real-world scenarios. Then use this information to work with a partner to plan and design a...

Young mathematicians construct and analyze patterns of association in bivariate data using scatter plots and linear models. The sixth chapter of a 10-part eighth grade workbook series then prompts class members to construct and...

How do doctors predict a child's future height? Scholars use one case study to determine the height of a child two years into the future. They graph the given data, determine the line of best fit, and use that to estimate the height in...

High schoolers determine if there is an associationm in a scatter plot of data. They analyze data through predictios, comparisons, and applications. Students calculate the line of best fit using a graphing calculator. They display data...

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

Students identify the parts of an engine using a graph. For this statistics lesson, students make a graph from their collected data. They calculate the volume of a cylinder using a line of regression and a scatter plot.

Which fluids make the best bubbles? Pupils experiment with multiple fluids to determine which allows for the largest bubbles before popping. They gather data, analyze it in multiple ways, and answer analysis questions proving they...

Learners are introduced to connecting graphing in a coordinate plane to making scatterplots on a graphing calculator. Working in pairs, they connect points plotted to make a sailboat and complete questions on a worksheet as well as plot...

Learners collect and analyze data. For this statistics lesson, pupils create a liner model of their data and analyze it using central tendencies. They find the linear regression using a spreadsheet.
