Students determine statistics based on data.  In this statistics lesson, students use data and record in charts.  Students create graphs based on the statistics found.

Second graders work in small groups to complete a graph and use data to determine range, mode, and median. They use the number of letters in their names and in fairy tale characters names to produce their data. This is a fun lesson!

Eighth graders discover the relationship between speed, distance, and time. They calculate speed and represent their data graphically. They, in groups, design a ramp for their matchbox car. The goal is to see who's ramp produces the...

Students examine college costs in different states. In this college cost instructional activity, students create a table and determine the average cost of college for the states listed. They organize the data into measurement categories....

Students work in collaborative teams with specific roles, use the Internet to research the behavior and ecology of pikas, make predictions about survival rates of pikas in different habitats and organize their data in graphs.

Third graders review important vocabulary to explain measures of central tendency and reaction time. In pairs, they measure reaction time of dropping and catching a ruler. Data is collected after repeated catches and information is...

Pairs use desktop publishing software, as well as digital video and camera equipment, to craft a book review. These reviews are then shared with others in the school community through the class or school website.

Second graders explore the meat group of the food pyramid. In this nutrition and diet activity, 2nd graders study the benefits of eating foods in the meat group, collect data regarding their classmates' favorite foods, and create a graph...

Fifth graders collect temperature readings over a period of time, enter the information into a spreadsheet and choose the appropriate graph to display the results.

Students create spreadsheets and bar graphs based on results of survey of favorite holidays.

Students determine if there is an associationm in a scatter plot of data. They analyze data through predictios, comparisons, and applications. Students calculate the line of best fit using a graphing calculator. They display data in...

Learners collect "prairie insects" for data collection and analysis.

Fifth graders examine fractional parts of pie graphs. Given a bag of M&Ms, 5th graders interpret the data. They use a paper plate and colors to create a graph of the types of M&Ms represented.

Students explore the concept of line of best fit. In this line of best fit lesson, students find lines of best fit in examples about riding your bike home from school and dentistry. Students find two data points and find the line of best...

Students connect different mathematical concepts. They create a circle graph. Students then create a question in which they collect data in order to convert fractions to decimals and decimals to percents.

Students participate in various activities, measuring their pulse rates and recording the data. They analyze the statistical concepts of mean, median, mode, and histograms using the data from the cardiovascular activities.

Fourth graders study different types of graphs as a means of displaying information. They survey others to find their favorite Thanksgiving food and then graph the results using different types of graphs.

Third graders analyze their health. In this analysis lesson plan, 3rd graders rate their health on a 1-10 scale. They then tally the scores from the class and create a data chart. Then they answer true and false questions based on...

Students explore the concept of linear regression. In this linear regression lesson plan, students do a Barbie bungee activity where they collect linear data. Students plot their data using a scatter plot. Students determine a line of...

Second graders discover how to make a bar graph. Each student receives a bag of Skittles candy. They make a bar graph which documents the colors found in the bag. At the end of the lesson plan, the Skittles are eaten. Fun!

Students recognize the mathematical connections between fractions and percents. They develop and study graphs to make connections between their data and what it represents. They write about the connections they have discovered.

Students design their own Science experiment. In this science experiment lesson students create a hypothesis related to matter and test it. They displayed their data in a graph.

Students solve problems using ratios and proportions. In this algebra lesson, students identify the unit rate and convert between fractions and decimals. They create graphs from their data.

Young scholars formulate questions that can be addressed with data and collect, organize, and display relevant data to answer them. They wcreate bar graphs and pie graphs
