Students investigate line graphs.   In this middle school mathematics lesson, students compare and contrast different types of graphs and create line graphs based on the data provided.

Students look at data in graphs with missing labels and use what they know about graphs to label the topics, titles, and axes of the graph. In this graph lesson plan, students pretend they are news reporters and have to fix their stories!

Young scholars are introduced to the organization of data This lesson is designed using stem and leaf plots. After gather data, they create a visual representation of their data through the use of a stem and leaf plot. Students...

In this graphing learning exercise, students review the five steps for making a double line graph to display data. Students then use the graph they made following the shapes to answer the three questions.

Students relate data to coordinate graphs and plot points on this graph. They use minimum wage data to construct the graph. Students decide appropriate time intervals for the graphs. They share graphs with their classmates.

Students practice an alternative form of data presentation. They practice sequencing data, identifying the stem-and-leaf, creating stem-and-leaf plots, and drawing inferences from the data by viewing the plots.

In this using data to make graphs  learning exercise, students interactively answer 10 multiple choice questions then click to check their answers.

For this graphing worksheet, 5th graders use 2 line graphs to answer 4 word questions. They use data from two charts to make a single and a double line graph.

Students collect and Analyze data. In this statistics lesson, students identify the line of best fit of the graph. They classify lines as having positive, negative and no correlation.

In this data analysis worksheet, students read and interpret given line graphs. They determine the range and average. This one-page worksheet contains five problems.

Second graders work with pumpkins to estimate, then accumulate data about pumpkin seeds. After cleaning out the pumpkins, 2nd graders utilize a worksheet imbedded in this plan which has a variety of pumpkin math activities they can do.

In this data worksheet, students learn how to organize the data collected during an experiment and practice finding patterns. Students graph a table of experimental data and complete 1 short answer question.

Students investigate and discuss why data is important. In this statistics lesson, students collect, graph and analyze data. They apply the concept of data and lines to finding the rate of change of the line created by the data.

For this collecting and organizing data worksheet, young scholars, with a partner, problem solve and calculate the answers to six mathematical word problems.

The bounce of a golf ball changes the result in golf, mini golf—and a great math activity. Scholars graph the height of golf ball bounces before finding a line of best fit. They analyze their own data and the results of others to better...

Just how far off is the least squares line? Using a graphing calculator, individuals or pairs create residual plots in order to determine how well a best fit line models data. Three examples walk through the calculator procedure of...

Middle and high schoolers collect and analyze their data. In this statistics instructional activity, pupils analyze graphs for linear regression as they discuss the relationship of the function to the number of rubber bands and the...

Discover how trend lines can be useful in understanding relationships between variables with a lesson plan that covers how to informally fit a trend line to model a relationship given in a scatter plot. Scholars use the trend line to...

The more you text, the less you study. Have classes test this hypothesis or another question related to text messages. Using real data, learners use technology to create a scatter plot and calculate a regression line. They create a dot...

Fifth and sixth graders sort data from least to greatest and mark an X on the line plot to show how many of each number. Then they determine the range, mode, and median for the problem.

Learners examine and chart data about safety hazards and unsafe situations. In this safety hazard lesson, students examine newspapers and web sites to investigate injuries from safety hazards. They make a spreadsheet using the data and...

It's the one day your classes get to 'shoot' their trash into the can! Scholars collect data related to shooting percentages to analyze. As they move farther from the basket, their percentages change, and a linear model emerges.

The Black Death epidemic is responsible for more than one million deaths in the United Kingdom. An inquiry-based activity has young scholars explore the rate of disease spread. They then analyze graphs showing data from epidemics such as...

Learners collect data on the amount of water left in a bottle over time. They graph the data to determine whether the scatter plot shows a curved or straight relationship. Group members then determine an equation for the curve of best...
