Trigonometric Functions
From a circle to a cycle! The final activity of a five-part series challenges learners to use points from the unit circle to plot a repeating pattern. The repeating patterns become the graphs of the trigonometric functions. Scholars...

Solution Sets to Inequalities with Two Variables
What better way to learn graphing inequalities than through discovering your own method! Class members use a discovery approach to finding solutions to inequalities by following steps that lead them through the process and...
Shodor Education Foundation
Possible or Not?
What does the graph mean? Pupils view 10 graphs and determine whether they are possible based on their contexts. The contexts are distance versus time and profit versus time.

Graph Club 2.0 Matching
Second graders study graphing using pictographs and bar graphs. They graph pie charts, line graphs, and also change the graph scale up to 1000. They use the pictograph on the left to create the same graph on the right using a bar graph.
Curated OER
Choose an Appropriate Graph
In this graphs learning exercise, students solve 6 fill in the blank problems where they choose the most appropriate type of graph for each set of data and explain why they chose that type. Students use bar graphs, histograms and circle...
