Fourth and fifth graders make predictions using data. In this analyzing data lesson, pupils use experimental data, frequency tables, and line plots to look for patterns in the data in order to determine chance. You will need to make a...

In this unit designed for second graders, youngsters are introduced to conducting surveys and creating tally charts based on the data they gather. Students then construct bar graphs, and observe the relationships between the two...

Get a line on the snakes. The assessment task requires the class to determine the species of unknown snakes based upon collected data. Individuals analyze two scatter plots and determine the most likely species for five...

Study various types of mathematical models in this math lesson. Learners calculate the slope to determine the risk in a situation described. They respond to a number of questions and analyze their statistical data. Then, they determine...

Mortgages, payments, and wages correlate with each other. The short assessment presents scatter plots for young mathematicians to interpret. Class members interpret the scatter plots of price versus payment and wage versus payment for...

Learners use the Frayer model during problem solving. In this problem solving lesson, they examine multiple methods of data collection to solve real world problems. Resources are provided.

Examine the three basic nutrients and their effects on the body. Fifth graders will research data to construct a bar graph and then  demonstrate the relationship between malnutrition and food security. This is a very comprehensive...

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. 

Don't want to sound corny, but your class will be a-maize-d by an engaging activity! Explore the history of the modern corn plant through a video and Punnett squares. Junior genetics experts get hands-on experience with actual research...

Young meteorologists explore different aspects of the weather while learning about measurement devices. They build instruments and then set up a weather station outside and measure temperature, humidity, air pressure, wind speed, and...

In this making predictions activity, students use the understand, plan, solve, and look back method to help them solve the questions about probability. Students use the data within the problem to predict and solve.

Students collect and analyze variable data and understand the concept of electrical power.  In this energy instructional activity students use a spreadsheet to manage their data and create box plots. 

In this data handling worksheet, students explore multiple ways to represent data.  They create stem and leaf plots, histograms, and bar charts.  Students examine and interpret diagrams and statistics.  This eleven-page...

Students explore the concept of probability.  In this probability lesson, students roll a six-sided number cube and record the frequency of each outcome.  Students graph their data using a frequency chart and keep tally marks...

Students apply central tendencies to given data. In this statistics lesson, students calculate the mean, median, and mode as it relates to their data. They collect data and graph it while identifying the way the numbers are ordered.

For this probability and statistics worksheet, 9th graders analyze and interpret histograms as they identify trends in the data.  The two page worksheet contains four problems.  Answers are provided. 

Students perform operations with matrices. In this algebra lesson, students use cryptography and cryptanalysis to solve problems. They add, subtract, and multiply matrices.

Give your math class a comprehensive understanding of bar graphs with this series of lessons. The resource is divided into three parts, and all of the accompanying worksheets are included. The class will study different bar graphs,...

Just because one integer is larger than another doesn't mean it will make sense right away. Go beyond note taking and show learners, through the use of algebra tiles and a Four-Pan Algebra Balance, how the numbers relate to one...

Students collect and analyze data, then draw conclusions from the data and apply basic concepts of probability.

Learners, after reading "The Button Box" by Margarette S. Reid, analyze real-world data by surveying a sample space. They predict the generalization onto a larger population utilizing calculators and computers. Students total categories,...

Students measure the heights of their fellow classmates and create a box and whisker plot to display the data. In this measurement lesson plan, students analyze the data and record results.

Students calculate derivatives from a set of data. In this calculus lesson, students estimate the limit at infinity. They complete a Return Interval handout at the end of the lesson.
