Students explore a variety of relevant lake water chemistry questions, compose responses, and present their results in a poster format. They, in pairs, answer questions about lake chemistry which are imbedded in this plan.

Students explore the concept of interpreting data. In this interpreting data lesson, students make a line plot of themselves according to the number of cubes they can hold in their hand. Students create their own data to graph and...

Students respond to survey questions, discuss results, brainstorm ways to represent survey information, and create table of class results. They find mean, range, and percentages, and create graph to display results.

What's your favorite? Use this chart template in your lesson on data collection and graphing. Learners record classmates' favorite vegetable in a survey, and then graph the results. A labelled graph is provided here- print both pages...

In this data recording and data organization learning exercise, students create one frequency table and one histogram for a given list of data.  Explanations and examples for frequency tables and histograms are given.

Analyze data on a graph to answer three questions after a robot race. Learners practice comparing ratios and reading points on a graph. Answers may vary on the last question based on accuracy of graphing. Use the lesson along with...

Population density, it is not all that it is plotted to be. Pupils analyze a scatter plot of population versus area for some of the states in the US. The class members respond to eight questions about the graph, specific points and...

"If global warming is real, why is it so cold?" Distinguishing the difference between weather and climate is important when it comes to understanding our planet. In these activities, young scientists look at the climate patterns in a...

This lesson begins with a review of linear functions and segues nicely over its fifteen examples and problems into a deep study of exponential functions. Linear and exponential growth are compared in an investment task. Data tables are...

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream bar graphs. Pupils create a multiple bar chart to represent the sales of ice cream products during the first week of summer. Using the chart, learners find the day that each of the...

For beginning point plotters, these graphs give a good introduction. They examine a graph with shapes drawn onto it and each vertex labeled. There are 20 total, and scholars write the coordinates of each labeled point. All of these are...

Make an estimate by getting in line. The class works with scatter plots and lines of best fit to make an estimate for given values. Pupils determine whether there is a positive or negative correlation and draw a best-fit line. Using the...

Determine how cup stacking relates to linear equations. Pupils stack cups and record the heights. Using the data collected, learners develop a linear equation that models the height. The scholars then interpret the slope and the...

In this Froot Loops to the Max worksheet, students solve 2 different problems related to graphing data with a box of Froot Loops cereal. First, they complete the circle/pie graph using the given data including a key and a title for their...

Learners examine various types of charts and discover how to construct a line graph. Using graph paper, they construct a graph displaying weight loss over a five-year period. They draw copnclusions from the completed graphs.

Students collect data, use a computer spreadsheet program to create various graphs, and compare the graphs. They state the findings of each graph in writing and decide which graph type best represents the data.

In this line graph worksheet, students use data given in a table and assign axes, make a scale, plot data and make a line or curve on their constructed graphs.

Students explore bar and line graphs. In this data collection, graphing, and weather lesson, students compare bar and line graphs and discuss which type of graph would be most appropriate for displaying a ten day weather forecast....

Eighth graders research statistical data regarding their current social studies unit. They write questions about the measures of central tendency, collect and analyze the data, insert the data into a spreadsheet, and generate graphs.

Students explore graphs.  In this graphing math lesson, students record the birthdays of each classmate on a data table.  Students cut out and add a picture of a birthday cake to a floor or wall pictograph representing the...

Middle schoolers collect live buoy data about water temperatures in the Gulf of Mexico from the Internet and work individually to organize their data and create a line graph using Excel Spreadsheet. Students analyze their data and...

In this circle graphs learning exercise, students analyze a data table about the activities in a day. Students then use this data to make a circle graph. Students answer 6 questions about the graph.

In this statistics worksheet, 11th graders collect data and organize it using a frequency table. They plot their data and analyze it using stem and leaf plots. There are 3 questions with an answer key.

In this data worksheet, learners answer 4 questions about a double line graph. For example, "How can you use the graph to figure out when each alligator grew the most?"
