Students engage in a lesson that focuses on the concept of linear equations. They practice solving problems with a variety of problems and graphing the solution set for each. Students write a summary paragraph about two methods of...

Students collect data from classmates showing their favorite lunch food. They enter their data and graph the results using a computer program.

Physics fanatics time five cars as they pass on the highway. They use the times and a 20-yard distance to calculate velocity. They also graph distance vs. time. A page of student pre-lab questions is provided in addition to the activity...

Students simulate radioactive decay and nuclear power using an on line interactive web site. In this on line lesson plan, students monitor radioactive isotopes and record the activity of a particular element as the decay progresses. They...

Students create a graph. In this pictograph lesson, students cut out 20 small ice cream cones and decorate them. Students create a pictograph with their ice cream cones.

Though an alternative method is suggested, the best way to carry out this investigation is with the use of a computer-interfaced motion detector. Physics fanatics hang a mass on the end of a spring and analyze its motion verbally,...

Pupils draw the graph of a door opening and closing over time. They graph a given function on their calculators, create a table of values and interpret the results by telling if the door is opening or closing and evaluate the average...

In this living environment worksheet, students answer 30 multiple-choice questions and 42 short-answer questions in preparation for the Regents exam.

Students explore the concept of normal distribution. In this normal distribution lesson, students find the normal distribution of taxes in the 50 US states. Students make histograms, frequency tables, and find the mean and median of tax...

Students complete a science experiment to study insulation, heat transfer, and permafrost. In this permafrost study instructional activity, students design and test a soda insulator. Students graph their class data and discuss the...

Students collect data from measurements and weights for this experiment. In this algebra lesson, students analyze graphs they create form their data to find the expression representing the data. They label which graph provided the best...

High schoolers simulate the interactions between a predator population of lynx and a prey population of rabbits. They collect and graph the data, then extend the graph to predict the populations for several more generations.

Middle schoolers play a game in which they simulate the interactions between a predator, lynx, and a prey, rabbit. Students collect data on the interactions, graph data, and make predictions for populations of several more generations.

Students create a collect data on expenses. In this algebra lesson, students create a spreadsheet to solve scientific equations. They incorporate math, science and technology in this lesson.

Middle schoolers employ statistics to solve real-world problems. They collect, organize and describe data. They make inferences based on data analysis. They construct, read, and interpret tables, charts and graphs.

Students examine the changing immigration pattern of Canada. In this immigration instructional activity, students use statistical data from a web-site to complete a worksheet and graph their findings.

Fifth graders construct data graphs based upon sets of data. In this graphing lesson, 5th graders read the text If the World Were a Village and discuss how types of graphs accurately represent a large population. Students construct their...

Students survey the class and graph the results. In this graphing and data collection lesson, students conduct a survey to see where their shirts were produced. Individuals use software to graph the results and create a written...

Students practice the basic principles of probability by conducting an experiment, determining if a game is fair, collecting data, interpreting data, displaying data, conducting analysis, and stating and applying the rule for probability.

Students study sports teams, gather data about the teams, and create a newscast about their data. In this sports analysis lesson plan, students research two teams and define their statistical data. Students compare the two teams, make...

Students determine the energy content of various snack foods. They measure the temperature changes in various snack foods as the foods are burned in order to determine the foods' energy content. Students create graphs and data tables of...

Students study the anatomy and functions of a heart. In this heart study lesson, students read a book about the heart and study a plaster heart model. Students take their own pulse in various stages of rest as well as active...
