Students explore different ways to display data. In this statistics lesson plan, students create pie charts, bar graphs and line graphs to show data. Students then write a paragraph discussing which types of graphs are helpful for...

In this scatterplots and regressions worksheet, students solve 6 different types of problems related to graphing scatterplots and interpreting regressions. First, they create a scatterplot from the given data coordinates and then,...

Investigate the properties of the shape formed by connecting the midpoints of adjacent sides of a quadrilateral. In this properties of the shape formed by connecting the midpoints of adjacent sides of a quadrilateral lesson, students use...

Learn to identify the properties of parabolas. Students define parabola as the locus of all points equidistant from a fixed point and a fixed line. Also, interpret the equation for a parabola in vertex form and gain a visual...

Students find the slope of a line given a linear equation in slope-intercept form. They also find the slope of a line given a linear equation in standard form. Students finally graph the line to show it visually.

Enough stuffed crust to go around. Pupils calculate the area and perimeter of a variety of pizza shapes, including rectangular and circular. Individuals design rectangular pizzas with a given area to maximize the amount of crust and do...

Learners are introduced to the construction geometrically of parabolas. Using a software program, they identify lines, segments and midpoints. They label the parabolas properties and characteristics and use a formula to determine the...

This lesson introduces students to the ideas involved in understanding fractals. They develop a sense of infinity, self-similarity and recursion and

In this algebra worksheet, students identify the properties of a parabola. They factor and graph quadratic equations. There are 18 questions.

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...

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...

Young mathematicians use bags of Skittles to help them gain practice in graphing and organizing data. They work in pairs, and after they have counted and organized their Skittles, they access a computer program which allows them to print...

Back to the basics: learning how to add numbers. The 17th installment of a 35-part module first reviews addition techniques for rational numbers, such as graphical methods (number line) and numerical methods (standard algorithm). It goes...

First graders explore the theme of dental health and hygeine. They make tooth loss predictions, count lost teeth, and graph tooth loss. In addition, they listen to dental health stories, read online stories, create spreadsheets, and play...

Some things are hard to resist. Small collaborative groups build circuits and calculate the voltage using Ohm's Law. Budding engineers explore the connection between the voltage across different resistors and linear...

Students experiment with distance, speed, and motion by graphing the motion of a bowling ball. For this distance versus time graphing lesson, students observe the speed and distance of a rolling ball and graph their findings. They then...

In this Calculus learning exercise, learners use a graphing calculator to boost their understanding of functions and their graphs as they examine the properties of curves.  The forty-two page learning exercise contains one hundred...

Students collect data using the CBL. In this statistics lesson, students predict the type of graph that will be created based on the type of activity the person does. The graph represents heart rate depending the level of activity.

Students investigate motion using a CBL. For this algebra lesson, students collect and graph data on a coordinate plane. They define and identify amplitude and period of conic graphs.

Students identify the slope of a line. In this algebra lesson plan, students label slopes as positive, negative, zero or undefined. They use the slope formula to find the slope algebraically and graphically.

Students use their understanding of 3D on 2D to make a representation of a 4D form on paper.

Students identify the three major cloud groups. They are introduced to the three main cloud types and spend a week making and recording observations of clouds. Students produce a graph that presents their findings and conduct research...

Seventh graders measure and record temperature over a given time period. They compare the recorded temperatures to the 40-year recorded normal average temperatures for the same area. Students display and interpret their findings in a graph.

Fifth graders create graphs based on climate in South Carolina. They read and interpret information in a chart and construct a graphy from the information in the chart. They create a spreadsheet using Excel and publish 2 graphs.
