Learners identify the different central tendencies. In this probability lesson, students create the correct type of graphs to analyze their data. They make predictions and draw conclusions from their data.

Fourth graders use drawing and paint tools to identify, draw and state several geometric terms.

Young scholars create an illustration of how to solve math problems. They use appropriate resources for solving the problems. Students have to demonstrate how drawing diagrams and using pictures can help them by using KidPix. On Slide...

Second graders, using a minimum of four space figures, create a mobile. They use a "Draw" program to first plan out their figure.

Students identify and label acute, obtuse, and right angles within a picture. Using Kid Pix software and digital photos, they manipulate, identify, and label the angles and describe the angles to a classmate.

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...

Become a bean counter. Pupils use a fun activity to design and execute an experiment to determine whether they can grab more beans with their dominant hand or non-dominant hand. They use the class data to create scatter plots and then...

Is time on your side? Pupils come up with an experiment to test whether their classmates can guess how long it takes for 30 seconds to elapse. They divide the class data into two groups, create box-and-whisker plots, and analyze the...

Class members study the size of classmates' feet and perform a statistical analysis of their data. They solve for central tendencies, quartiles, and spread for the entire group as well as subgroups. They then write a conclusion based on...

How do you find the area of an irregular shape? Class members calculate the area of an irregular shape by finding the area of a random sampling of the shape. Individuals then utilize a confidence interval to improve accuracy and use a...

Students collect and explore gingerbread man data. In this math and technology lesson plan, students examine how to organize and interpret data in three formats: objects, pictures, and graphs.
