Young scholars graph and outline the path of a typhoon. In this algebra instructional activity, students measure the path of the typhoon and create a graph with their data. They analyze the data and make predictions.

Explore the concept of mean, median, and mode with pupils. They estimate the length of a string or the number of M&M's in a jar. Then find the mean, median, and mode of the class' estimates.

Each member of the class creates their own paper ruler. Using their ruler, kids walk around the room measuring the objects you've specified. Discuss how items should be measured to the 16th of an inch, the smallest unit on their ruler....

Students graph lines using the slope and y-intercept. In this algebra instructional activity, students create data using tables and equations. They use their data to make predictions and draw conclusion.

Students are introduced to lines, rays, line segments and planes and study the differences between them. They also practice graphing lines, rays, line segments and planes

Students identify the line of best fit. In this statistics lesson, students analyze graphs and plots to identify positive, negative or no correlation. They find the line of best fit for different scatter plots.

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

Eighth graders use the data analyzer and motion detector to collect data and measure distances. They create topographic maps drawn to scale of a given setup and relate the concepts to the creation of historical ocean maps.

Students graph and solve linear system of equations. In this algebra lesson, students use algebraic and graphing methods to solve their systems. They find the point of intersection for their solution and draw inference from their data.

Students explore the effects of a declining fossil fuel system would have on the world. They read the line graph and other information to answer questions about fossil fuels. Students use mathematics to analyze graphical data and...

Students calculate the maximum and minimum of each function. In this algebra instructional activity, students collect and graph data to analyze it. They differentiate between the absolute max and min and the maxima and minima of each...

Seventh graders investigate the concept of functions and how they are used in the context of the real world while identifying the dependent and independent variables. They graph relations and functions and find the zeros of functions....

Seventh graders measure and record temperature over a given time period. They compare the recorded temperatures to the 40-year recorded normal average temperatures for the same area. Students display and interpret their findings in a graph.

Students research and collect data regarding temperature changes for a specific location and find the mean, median, and mode for their data. For this climate change lesson, students choose a location to research and collect data...

Adjust this lesson to fit either beginning or more advanced learners. Build a scatter plot, determine appropriate model (linear, quadratic, exponential), and then extend to evaluate the model with residuals. This problem uses real-world...

Eighth graders measure in feet and inches and convert to explore the relationship between the converted measurements. In this measurement lesson, 8th graders use the whisker and box plot to represent the measurement of a cat. ...

Students create experiments in class based on the erosion of Earth. In this erosion lesson plan, students perform a lab in class replicating the effects of erosion. Students finally draw their own conclusions based on the research...

Students analyze graphs and make conclusions about climate change.  In this climates lesson students produce graphs and identify relationships between parameters.

Students research bird migration and build a bird house. In this bird lesson plan, students research the birds in their area and where they migrate to. They also build their own bird house and record data on what kinds of birds come to...

Students identify aquatic insects. In this organism activity, students locate aquatic insects near a local waterway and collect them. Students graph the amount of insects that they collected.

Young scholars solve quadratic equations using graphs. In this algebra lesson plan, students factor quadratic equations and graph their answer. They discuss the shape of their graph based on the function.

Fourth graders explore the weapons of the Aboriginal people.  For this fourth grade math lesson, 4th graders create charts, tables, or diagrams to represent patterns and relations.  Students investigate which dart length has...

Eighth graders, using a range of data, produce three bar graphs for various scales along the y-axis.

Students use CERES percent coverage surface data with a world map in locating landmasses and bodies of water at Earth's Equator.
