Begin the process of adding and subtracting spectra. Having a basic understanding of occultation events, pupils begin the pursuit to determine what a found atmosphere might contain. Learners work with two graphs and calculate what the...

No graphing calculator? No worries, there's an app for that! Young mathematicians use an app to graph functions. In addition, they can also plot data points.

Combine a fantastic review of primary source analysis with a study of Captain John Smith's influence on the Chesapeake Bay region in the seventeenth century. Your young historians will use images, a primary source excerpt, and maps...

To examine mathematical functions in a modeling situation pupils combine quadratic and step functions to represent a presented scenario. They both graph and write a function to represent data shown in a table. 

Back and forth, and back again. A presentation on harmonic motion would make a great backdrop for a directed instruction lesson in Honors Physics. It includes diagrams, formulas, graphs, and a few sample problems.

Two for one—create an invertible and non-invertible function from the same data. The task presents a function table with missing outputs for the class to use to create two functions. One of the functions should have an inverse while the...

If basketball players make more than teachers, why shouldn't learners all aspire to play in the NBA? Unraveling the cost and benefits of education and future economic success can be tricky. Economic data, real-life cases, and some...

After an initial sharing of and discussion about favorite foods, individuals or partners create surveys about food. Spanish language learners must include several comparative questions in their surveys. Once everyone has gathered...

Students analyze data related to amusement parks and create a spreadsheet to display the data. They read the data and predict which amusement park they think is safer, create a spreadsheet and graph, and write a proposal based on their...

In this bar graph worksheet, students read about making quality bar graphs and they make a bar graph using given data. They answer 5 questions about their graph.

Learners work in pairs to test the strength of spaghetti strands. They collect and graph data to determine a line of best fit. Students create a linear equation to interpret their data. Based on the data collected, learners predict...

This graphing PowerPoint demonstrates how to use graphs to gather information. The slides contain examples of graphs and display the data clearly. This presentation also gives clear directions on how to construct various graphs by using...

Students analyze data and make inferences. In this algebra activity, students collect and analyze data as they apply it to the real world.

Students identify real graphs and misleading graphs. In this algebra lesson, students surf the Internet for real life scenarios where graphs are used in a misleading way as well as in a correct way.

Students use calculator and non-calculator methods for analyzing data. They apply data collection and analysis in a study of mass and weight. Students enhance and apply the concept of line of best fit. They master graphing in a plane,...

Fourth graders investigate when to find the mean, median, mode and range.  In this statistical concepts lesson, 4th graders collect data, make observations and graph the data. Students verify their work on the computer.

For this secondary mathematics learning exercise, high schoolers collect data based on a person’s motion. From this data, students create graphs comparing displacement, velocity, and acceleration to time. The five-page learning exercise...

Students investigate the skin surface to body area ratios for different animals.  In this seventh/eighth grade mathematics/science lesson, students explore heat transfer between an animal’s body and the environment.  Using...

In this statistics worksheet, students plot and graph their data, then interpret the data using the correct form of graphs. There are 3 detailed questions with an answer key.

Students graph linear and exponential equations. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between linear and exponential equations. They relate it to the real world.

Seventh graders investigate the concept of looking at the data put in a variety of ways that could include graphs or data sets. They analyze data critically in order to formulate some sound conclusions based on real data. Students graph...

Students measure their pulse rates and place the number on the board. They arrange the numbers in order and discuss the differences between isolated facts and data. Students explore websites that relate to data analysis and report their...

Third graders use two days to create, collect, display and analyze data. Classroom activities and practice build greater understanding to a variety of forms used to display data.
