Second graders examine how to make and read bar graphs. In this bar graph lesson, 2nd graders compare bar graphs to pictographs by looking at hair color survey data. They practice making a bar graph and finding the range of the data.

Students practice reading a graph while doing story problems. They determine the x and y intercepts and calculate the slope. They also practice writing linear equations.

Students listen to the book, TOPS AND BOTTOMS looking at different vegetables from the story that they have tried in class that week. They then focus their attention on a graph called, "What is Your Favorite Vegetable?". They place a...

Students explore statistics by researching class birthday data. For this data analysis lesson, students investigate the different birthdays among their classmates and create data tables based on the given information. Students view bar...

Third graders research their genealogy. In this math lesson, 3rd graders collect data and create graphs and charts. A presentation of their findings is given.

Seventh graders create a line graph and identify when to use line graphs. In this line graphs lesson plan, 7th graders analyze the average temperatures of various cities. Students graph the data they collected.

Students create graphs to illustrate the bald eagle population. They identify the population of bald eagles in Minnesota and the United States. They create three graphs to represent the population data including a line, bar, and...

Students create "snowballs" from crumbled pieces of white paper. They then glue their snowball to the appropriate side of the graph to indicate who has and who has not thrown a snowball. The teacher and the calss then will count how many...

In this math graphs learning exercise, students use the data within the 'Make-Believe Animals' bar graph to answer the six word problems. Students learn to read the graph and use the numbers to solve the problems.

First graders observe how the first sentence of a story is read very slowly and can be read faster and with more expression. They then read the same book three times to become more familiar with the words in the book and then read it...

Student increase their reading fluency through the use of various strategies. After reviewing good reader strategies, 2nd graders read a novel text. Working with the instructor, they complete a timed assessment of their words read per...

Students practice one-minute oral readings to increase their speed and fluency. They review several reading strategies, and then they read orally with a partner. The partner times their reading with a stopwatch and tracks their time on...

Students identify that fluency helps them to read faster, smoother, and with more expression. They read a book where a pet dog named Red is hungry and wants her owner to give her food. Students practice quick reading by reading until...
