Students estimate and then count the number of each color of M&M's in their bag. In this mathematics lesson plan, students find the experimental probability of selecting each color from the bag. Students create pictographs and bar...

High Schoolers use the TI-83 calculator to produce a sequence, explore patterns and find a linear or quadratic equation for a given pattern. They use inductive reasoning to make conjectures about patterns. They find the Y-value of a...

Students compare the costs of two cellular phone plans and determine the best rate. They use a table and a graph of points plotted on a Cartesian plane to display their findings. Students write an equation containing variables that could...

Students investigate plant growth. In this plant growth lesson, students investigate what would happen to plants if they did not have water and sunlight. Students conduct experiments to determine what plants need. Students create a...

Students study reaction rates, what determines how fast a reaction happens and how the chemical changes occur.  In this reactions instructional activity students complete a lab where they use Alka-Seltzer to observe reaction rate...

Students plot activities for a 24 hour day. They record their information on a spread sheet program. Students list categories they use and write equations for cells that add cells of each category together. Students create a pie chart of...

Students perform a science experiment. In this algebra lesson, students collect data from their experiment and create a graph. They analyze the graph and draw conclusion.

Pupils analyze height and collect data to create a graph. In this statistics lesson, students use central tendencies to analyze their data and make predictions. They apply concept of statistics to other areas of academics to make a...

Students analyze data representing real life scenarios.In this algebra lesson plan, students collect, plot and analyze data using a graph. They use different methods to represent and present their data.

Pupils gather statistical information on a chosen topic and place it into a spreadsheet. Using th Excel chart wizard, students create tables, graphs and charts of their information. They interpret the data and share it with the class.

Students calculate the distance and velocity over time. In this algebra lesson, students graph a linear function to represent the distance vers time travel. They interpret their graphs and draw conclusion.

Fifth graders study how to measure distance.  In this graphing motion lesson students complete a lab activity that shows them on the computer how to make graphs. 

Students study graphs and learn how to display information into a graph. In this graph lesson plan, students construct a graph of their own sorted data, and pick out things in graphs that are inconsistent.

Students interpret and analyze data.  For this middle school mathematics lesson, students conduct an experiment in which they investigate which solar collector, black, white, or silver, absorbs the most heat.  Students examine...

In this family TV worksheet, students study, examine and make predictions about several television shows, collect data and then chart their data collected.

Pupils develop number sense up to a million.  In this developing number sense up to a million lesson, students count their breaths in given time span.  Pupils use blocks representing 10's and 100's to create a million. ...

Students experiment with the sense of touch. In this tactile instructional activity, students determine the most sensitive area of the hand. Students experiment by describing objects through touch only. Students compare the amount of...

Students collect data on different events and word problems. In this algebra lesson, students use a table to organize their data. They graph their coordinate pairs on a coordinate plane and make predictions.

Students collect and interpret data to make predictions about the levels of ozone in the atmosphere. Using the internet to collect data students use their collected data to create a line graph for analysis. Students make mathematical...

Students work in groups to predict which condition produces more breaths per minute. Groups record their breathing rates during rest periods and periods of activity. They graph their results and make comparisons to their predictions.

Young scholars investigate polling. In this statistics instructional activity, students collect data-on polling and graph their data on a coordinate plane. They identify biased and non-biased polling.
