Is there a correlation between the number of coffee shops and the amount of crime in a given area? In this quick exercise, your class will examine the data, interpret the results, and discuss their conclusion. Concepts covered include...

Student apply linear relationships to the real world. They use Ken and Barbie dolls and experiment to find the line of best fit. They collect data, analyze data, and make predictions from it. The students also use Microsoft Power Point...

Students test Leonardo da Vinci's view of the human body by measuring various body parts using a tape measure. They create a data table and a scatter plot and then analyze and interpret the results using a graphing calculator.

Students engage in a instructional activity that covers the concepts related to the graphing of hyperbolas looking at topics like foci, center, vertices, and asymptotes. They find multiple different points in the coordinate plain and...

Use a worksheet to go over the basic concepts of relations and functions. Included are clear definitions and examples of relations, domain and range, and functions and the vertical line test.  However, the problems are pretty...

Given the least squares regression line, interpret the slope and intercept in the context of the relationship between texting and GPA. Although this task is short and looks simple, some subtle points can be brought to light in a...

In this algebra instructional activity, learners solve equations for y, graph the equations using the slope and y-intercept, and name four points on the line. There are 20 questions with their graphs.

Students study the functional relationships of a variety of problems. For this functional relationship lesson, students determine the dependent and independent quantities of a given set of data. Students record the data and...

Students view a video to discover how patterns in nature relate to math. They explore the concept of exponential growth by observing and creating fractals. They solve and design word problems.

Fourth graders participate in a teacher-led discussion about temperature--hot and cold. Each group of students is assigned specific materials for their lab experiment. They record temperatures measured in their journals and then plot...

Where this lesson plan idea is lacking in materials, it makes up for with creativity! Using "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" as the background, mathematicians plot points on a coordinate grid to create props for the story. The polygons...

In this graphing learning exercise, students solve and graph 10 different problems that include determining various coordinates and the slope. First, they use the table to write the x and y coordinates for each point on the graphs. Then,...

Eighth graders explore the coordinate system. They identify the x and y-axis, parts of the coordinate plane, and discuss the process of plotting points. To emphasize the process of plotting points, 8th graders play an ordered pair...

Sixth graders practice graphing coordinates. In this geometry instructional activity, they use the x and y axis to locate points that must be connected in the right sequence to form a straight line.

In this statistics worksheet, students solve 2 problems that involving plotting data, recognizing ordered pairs, and analyzing the graphed relationship.

Students create a table of values to help them plot. In this algebra lesson, students plot their points on a coordinate plane creating a graph. They observe and analyze linear functions.

For this statistics worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 5 different word problems that include different data. First, they determine if there is an explanatory and a response variable in the given data set. Then, students create a...

In this scatterplots worksheet, students construct a scatter plot from a given data set. Students then answer 4 questions regarding the least-squares regression line and making predictions.

Learners examine a line of points through its slope. They plot points using sticky notes of a balloon's movement amd determine the slope of the lines plotted.

In this statistics worksheet, learners view 6 graphs to determine the correlation. Students then answer 4 questions that involve plotting data, determining a relationship, and making predictions.

In this polynomial worksheet, students approximate values of linearly using the tangent line. They use first and second-degree polynomials to find the equation of a line tangent to a graph. Students explore Taylor's Theorem. This...

High schoolers engage in a lesson that focuses on analytic geometry. The lesson asked them to apply skills of relating equations when plotting them on the coordinate plane. Students construct the equations using specific criteria and...

In this scatter plot worksheet, students write an equation for a line that would fit the given scatter plot. They create scatter plots from given information. This two-page worksheet contains eight problems.

Tenth graders plot points on a coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders identify the different quadrants, plots points on a number line and coordinate plane and solve for the midpoint of line segments.
