Eighth graders experiment with a bathroom scale, books and a plank to determine how weight readings change as distance is applied. They graph and interpret the results.

Fourth graders collect data, graph their data, and then make predictions based upon their findings. They's interest is maintained by the interesting way the data is collected. The data collection experiment is from the psychology work of...

Eighth graders experiment with M&M's and a cup attached to a spring to to simulate a bungee jump. They graph the results of the experiment and make predictions for continuing the experiment. They determine the "line of best fit."

Fourth graders interpret a graph and make correlations using data. After taking a class survey, 4th graders create a class graph of their favorite planets. Working in small groups, they interpret the information and create at least ten...

Students participate in a class survey and then design an experiment and use graphs and statistics to assist them in solving a problem. They organize the results of the survey in a stem-and-leaf plot and find the range, median, mean, and...

Fifth graders create graphs based on climate in South Carolina. They read and interpret information in a chart and construct a graphy from the information in the chart. They create a spreadsheet using Excel and publish 2 graphs.

Learners test the strength of fishing lines. In this stress test lesson plan, students will investigate the breaking point of various fishing lines and graph the results.

Learners complete a lab in order to discover if the length of a viewing tube, its diameter, or the distance from an object affect the type of data collected and the resulting graph.

Students graph the population growth of New Hampshire using historical census data.

Young scholars investigate how to estimate the age and size of turtles, and examine variability in scientific data. They read an informational handout, identify the parts of the shell, measure the shell and estimate the age, and record...

Students increase understanding of the drug issue and further develop skill in graphing.

Students identify the three major cloud groups. They are introduced to the three main cloud types and spend a week making and recording observations of clouds. Students produce a graph that presents their findings and conduct research...

Students record data, make observations, and share in experimentation and discussion of numerical experiments.

Eighth graders decide if the length of a viewing tube, its diameter, or the distance from an object affects the type of data collected and the resulting graph through a series of experiments.

Learners graph the ocean floor using given data. In this earth science lesson, students label different oceanic features on the map. They answer questions at the end of the lab.

Students practice collecting data by surveying other students. For this data collection lesson plan, students decide on a question and collects data from 15 other students. Eventually the students will end up graphing their results.

Students create graphs comparing the amount of snow cover along selected latitudes using data sets from a NASA website. They create a spreadsheet and a bar graph on the computer, and analyze the data.

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.

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.

Pupils analyze graphs for specific properties. In this algebra lesson plan, students solve equations and graph using the TI calculator. They find the different changes that occur in each graph,including maximum and minimum.

Students investigate graphing a line. In this algebra lesson, students collect data on the path of a skateboarder. They collect how fast the board is traveling along a straight line and graph their results.

Students graph linear equations using slopes and intercepts. For this algebra lesson, students identify the slope as being positive,negative or undefined. They differentiate between different quadrants on a coordinate plane.

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...

Learners determine the density of 1 drop of water. In this determining density lesson plan, students determine the mass and volume of a drop of water in the lab using appropriate lab techniques and calculate the density of a drop of water.
