Pupils solve problems using patterns. In this algebra lesson, students identify the relation, domain and range of a function. They graph functions using coordinate pairs.

Students compare and contrast data charts and statistics for food prices of now and in the past. In this food prices lesson plan, students answer short answer questions and calculate computations.

Young scholars explore the topic of statistics with M and Ms. In this math lesson plan, students use candy pieces to sort and gather information needed to create a bar graph. This activity can be adapted to accommodate young scholars in...

Students examine the mathematical concept of area. These activities and discussions may be used to develop students' understanding of this mathematical concept and will enable students to calculate the area of a random shape on a grid.

Pupils create pictographs using their classmates in this technology-based lesson. The lesson uses Inspiration, or Kidspiration, digital cameras, and a downloadable pictograph template.

Students monitor weather conditions for an eighteen day period at a specific location. The temperature of both air and water is taken and the mean, median, and mode calculated. Differences between the highest and lowest recordings are made.

Tenth graders explore the concept of spreadsheets. They create a simple spreadsheet and chart from given data. Students perform basic formatting procedures on their chart. They use spreadsheet functions to perform calculations.

Fourth graders calculate the angles and construct a pie graph of the percentages of the elements in the continental and oceanic crusts. Then they analyze the results. They can be assigned the task of researching the percentages.

Srudents demonstrate analysis of colorimetric assay results by analyzing them using a computer graphing program and demonstrate application of standard curves by finding other areas of science that can utilize standard curves in analysis...

Students explore the relationship between two variables. Students measure their arm span and height. They gather this class data to design a scatter plot. Students interpret the meaning of individual coordinates and the overall graph....

Students draw a ship to scale, and calculate the real life size. They show that measurements on the drawingsare annotated with the distances reported in inches (fractions and decimals), and their real-world equivalents
