Math Is Fun: Data Graphs
Create and customize a bar graph, line graph, or pie chart based on a set of data and print it out.
Math Is Fun
Math Is Fun: Line Graphs
Explains, with examples, what a line graph is and how to construct one. Includes a set of practice questions.
CK-12 Foundation
Ck 12: Graphing
[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Given a set of data, students will understand how to correctly draw a line or bar graph, interpret its patterns, and find the slope in the case of a line graph.

Ixl Learning: Line Plots
Brush up on your math skills relating to line plots then try some practice problems to test your understanding.
Texas Education Agency
Texas Gateway: Graphing Proportional Relationships
Given a proportional relationship, students will be able to graph a set of data from the relationship and interpret the unit rate as the slope of the line.

Texas Instruments: Numb3 Rs: Less Is More
Based off of the hit television show NUMB3RS, this two-part lesson begins by having students try to find the line of best fit for a given set of data (strike outs vs. home runs). The second part of the lesson shows how least squares...
