Pupils circumscribe a circle about a triangle. They construct a triangle using Cabri Jr and then circumscribe it. They then use knowledge of perpendicular bisectors and circumcenters to locate the center of the circle and then...

Here is a nifty worksheet on energy transfer. Physics fanatics analyze a diagram and state whether or not friction is involved. They sketch bar graphs and draw energy flow diagrams for each system as well. Circular motion, movement up...

Seventh graders create a graph of their Christmas gifts. They develop categories, compute fractional and decimal parts for each category, identify the number of degrees to represent each fractional part, and create a circle graph to...

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 investigate different online tutorials as they study graphing. In this graphing lesson, students apply the concept of graphs cross curricular and use it to make predictions. They define the purpose and theories behind graphs.

Students graph circles. In this graphing lesson students write equations for circles. Students solve equations for circles and graph the results.

Using Cabri Jr. students construct a circle and determine the equation of the circle they drew by finding the center and the radius. Students use the distance formula to derive the equation of their circle.

Fourth graders examine the use of stem and leaf graphs. In this stem and leaf graph instructional activity, 4th graders participate in teacher led instructional activity showing the use of the graphs. They work in groups to collect data...

In this circles and parabolas worksheet, students follow directions to draw parabolas. They fold paper to represent a parabola. Students also use straight lines to create a circle. This one page worksheet contains three multi-step...

How much can you tell about a circle from its equation? This detailed lesson plan focuses on connecting equations and graphs of circles. Learners use equations to identify x- and y-intercepts, centers, and radii of circles. They also...

Students are given three choices of food. They then decide on their favorite and predict what the class's favorite food will be. After the teacher enters the data into the computer, students gather around the computer to view the...

Trace the links between a variety of math concepts in this far-reaching unit. Ideas that seem very different on the outset (like the distance formula and rigid transformations) come together in very natural and logical ways. This...

Students explore the degree, diameter, planarity, and size of graphs.  In this degree, diameter, planarity, and size of graphs lesson, students try to construct a graph with more than 12 vertices that satisfy all other...

Students differentiate between bar graphs, line graphs, pictographs and bar graphs. After participating in a hands-on cookie activity, students label and draw their own graphs.

Students examine graphs to find the most appropriate for various kinds of data.  For this graphing lesson, student create bar, line and circle graphs.  Students create graphs electronically and manually interpreting the data.

Students collect and analyze data. In this statistics instructional activity, 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 collect data, use a computer spreadsheet program to create various graphs, and compare the graphs. They state the findings of each graph in writing and decide which graph type best represents the data.

In this reading graphs practice activity, learners examine a graph and respond to 5 questions that require them to record the coordinates of 5 shapes on the gridded graph.

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...

Mem Fox’s Wilfrid Gordon McDonald Partridge provides the labels for a graphing activity. Class members create an illustration of a memory item brought from home, and place their illustration in the proper column of a graph. When the...

Learners record their daily activities and graph the results using the educational software program called Inspiration. This instructional activity is intended for the upper-elementary classroom and includes resource links and activity...

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,...

Math is all fun and games with this activity! Learners use an activity designed around hula hoops to collect data. They create scatter plots with their data and then analyze the graphs for correlation. 

Representing data is as easy as pie. Class members construct pie charts given a frequency table. Individuals then determine the size of the angles needed for each sector and interpret the size of sectors within the context of frequency....
