Students use Ohio census data to solve problems, make comparisons, draw conclusions, and support predictions related to Ohio's population. They interpret and work with pictures, numbers and symbolic information.

Learners examine computerized data maps in order to create graphs of the amount of snowfall found at certain latitudes by date. Then they compare the graphs and the data they represent. Students present an analysis of the graphs.

Fourth graders problem solve a problem from a local business using data, generating graphs, and draw conclusions. They submit their findings in a business letter format with feed back from a company's plant manager.

Students are given data and are to calculate averages and yearly totals of how many cars travel the Tacoma Narrows Bridge. They also make a graph of the data.

Sixth graders develop a reasonable hypothesis for a fictional science fair investigation. 'Raquel' is going to grow radishes and test for the best way to nourish them. They create a bar graph and write conclusions.

Students create a spreadsheet which includes a bar graph. They sort and classify information and use the average function on a spreadsheet. They research Skittles candy and summarize their findings on a spreadsheet.

Learners perform computer simulations on air dispersion. In this chemistry lesson, students calculate energy transfer based on specific heat and temperature change. They explain the causes of smog.

Students investigate the concept of exponential functions and how they increase in size over time. They simplify the functions in order to find the solutions that are possible and perform analysis of the curved line that is produced when...

Students conduct a scientific investigation to determine if a magnet attracts paper clips through different materials. Students write out their procedures, collect data and present it in a table or chart, and analyze their results.

Students study currents and how they have been used to plot courses for travel. They examine the ocean currents in both the Atlantic and Pacific and discuss their effect on local weather.

Second graders graph M & M's by color. In this graphing lesson plan, 2nd graders first predict how many of each color they think are in a handful of M & M's. Then they graph the amounts of each color on a computer program....

Students investigate the concentration level of solutions. In this math/science lesson, students identify three different ionic compounds. They predict the conductivity of each using their collected data.

Students play a memory game as they explore reasoning. In this algebra lesson, students identify concepts using pictures and words. They model real life scenarios using hands on manipulatives.

Students complete a weather report chart after studying weather patterns for a period of time. In this weather report lesson, students measure temperature, precipitation, cloud cover, wind speed, and wind direction for a month. Students...

Learners collect information and use a line to represent it. In this algebra lesson, students investigate real world data to see if it makes a line. They graph the line comparing the relationship of the x axis with that of the...

Students graph and outline the path of a typhoon. In this algebra lesson, students measure the path of the typhoon and create a graph with their data. They analyze the data and make predictions.

Eighth graders explore and demonstrate the seven steps of the scientific method. They predict how much sugar is in chewing gum and test, analyze, and calculate the sugar content of gum.

Students examine real-world data relating to real estate. They conduct Internet research, record data regarding real estate in major cities, graph the data, calculate mortgage payments using a mortgage calculator, and analyze the data.

Learners construct a linear graph. For this graphing lesson, students determine a monthly budget for gasoline. Learners construct a t-chart and coordinate graph to display data. Resources are provided.

Students solve problems using equations and properties of integers. In this algebra lesson, students solve problems using ratio and proportion and graph their answers on a coordinate plane. They solve word problems using geometry.

Students investigate how fuel amount affects the distance traveled by balloons. In this physics lesson plan, students collect data and create a pictograph. They interpret data and formulate a conclusion.

Students predict the-outcome of an event. In this algebra lesson, students compare and contrast the probability of an event occurring. They calculate the odds of a simple event and make estimation.

Pupils review the Census Bureau's Homepage, gather information regarding population trends in order to make predictions on future populations.

Third graders practice creating bar graphs by conducting a taste test.  In this graphing lesson, 3rd graders taste several different brands of peanut butter and discuss among their classmates which tastes better.  Students...
