Students download or create maps with numerical weather data. They add isolines and color to create regions on their maps. They explore the visual properties of color palettes and create a visualization applying their knowledge.

Students explore recent changes in the Artic's climate that have been observed by Artic residents. They watch videos, take notes and create a concept map. They also look at historical weather data from a specific Artic community. The...

Students participate in a variety of mini-lessons including experiments, literature readings, physical education components, music, data gathering and recording and more to expose them to several themes of weather; i.e. water cycle,...

Students comprehend how heat loss is affected by exposed surface area. They decide what type of and how many data to collect. Students decide how the results should be presented. They make a series of accurate observations

Third graders study clouds and how they are formed. They write acrostic poems about clouds and analyze and graph temperature data collected during varying degrees of cloud cover.

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

Students simulate the changes in a natural population of birds or other species. They establish baseline data of population fluctuation for a closed population with a stable food supply. They graph the data to complete their mutations.

Students convert degrees between two different units. In this algebra lesson, students graph linear equations and identify the line of best fit. They use their line of best fit to make predictions given a set of data.

Students draw a line graph, and use graphing as a tool to discover more about conduction, convection and radiation. They should design their own experiment using heat sensitive paper to show they explain these 3 processes.

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 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.

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

Students collect data for a runner by measuring the time it takes for the runner to run equal distances. After collecting data, students average speeds and accelerations for the runner. Assignment is completed by graphing the data.

Students use beach profile data to analyze how erosion and sediment transport changed seashore slopes. In this geology activity, students plot the data provided and analyze erosion patterns. They also assess coastal erosion management...

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...

Students read about potential violent relationships and beliefs about dating.  In this relationship lesson students use graphs to examine data about healthy realtionshipsand draw conclusions on their results.

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 explore the concept of linear and exponential growth. In this linear and exponential growth instructional activity, students collect data about China's population. Students model the data to determine if it is linear or...

High schoolers explore how fuel use affects the mass of different planes during flight and graph their results. They determine the per person fuel cost of a transatlantic flight for seven airplanes

Students predict and estimate the number of moose shot by people between the years of 1986-1990. They analyze data and statistics, construct bar graphs, and conduct research on the Alaskan moose.

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

Young scholars graph dissolved oxygen versus depth using data taken from NECOP Program. In this marine science activity, students explain the causes of hypoxia. They recommend possible solutions to this problem.

Eleventh graders test the pH and alkalinity of Pago River. In this ecology lesson, 11th graders collect data and use spreadsheet to graph results. They analyze and share their findings with the class.

Students use an on line website to simulate the effects of light intensity and wavelength on photosynthesis. In this photosynthesis lesson plan, students determine how wavelength of light and intensity of light affect the rate at which...
