Students make origami frogs to race. After the race they measure the distance raced, collect the data, enter it into a chart. They then find the mean, median, and mode of the data. Next, students enter this data into Excel at which time...

Students relate the concepts of linear functions to the game of monopoly. In this algebra lesson, students solve problems with ratio and proportion. They collect data and graph it.

Students analyze data and make inferences. In this algebra lesson, students collect and analyze data as they apply it to the real world.

Students gain practice in the analysis of various types of graphs common in daily life. These examples often use graphic images like charts, graphs, tables, and pictures to supplement learning.

Students use the scientific method to conduct an experiment to test how a ball bounces. In this inquiry-based physical science and scientific method instructional activity, students drop a ball from specified heights and record the...

Students explore American tall tales. In this tall tale activity, students discover the six characteristics that are included in tall tales. Students survey their class to find each student's favorite tall tale character and organize the...

Students identify the slope of linear functions. In this slope lesson plan, students collect data and graph it. They write equations with no more than two variables and use technology to explain their data.

Using a table, students solve 12 word problems about the weights of various foods at the grocery store. The solve addition and subtraction problems as well as convert kilograms to grams.

Students evaluate data from a statistical chart or graph which they find in a newspaper or magazine.

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

Tenth graders conduct a survey at a high school basketball game. They compile and present the data as histograms or bar graphs.

In this graph instructional activity, learners solve 3 problems using a data table and bar graph. Students write number sentences to figure out answers to the questions about kinds of toys in a shop.

There is a 100 percent chance this resource will help pupils connect percents to financial literacy. Young mathematicians use their knowledge of percents to find markups and markdowns in financial situations in the seventh segment in a...

Check out the handout from a presentation that contains a collection of high school algebra projects connecting a variety of mathematics to the real world. Activities range from simple probabilities to calculus. The activities...

Vectors and their connection to motion. A video will be presented to provide information for the class to use methods of solving vectors with and without grids. Real-world physical concepts will be explored in reference to vectors.

Students perform operations with matrices. In this algebra lesson, students use cryptography and cryptanalysis to solve problems. They add, subtract, and multiply matrices.

Rivers aren't just a place for animals to live, they also provide industrial transportation. The class will examine the Hudson River on a map, discuss all the commercial vessels that use the River to transport materials, then complete a...

Rolling dice is a great way for your mathematicians to get a hands-on approach to probabilities. Use the chart to record whether they rolled a six during ten attempts. Calculate results individually (or in small groups) and then record...

Learners determine the exact relationship between the height from which a ball is dropped and the distance that it rebounds.

In this statistics worksheet, students explore five activities that require analysis and interpretation of maps, charts, and scatter plots.  The six page lesson includes five activities or experiments with short answer...

Using three set of data that relate temperature to another variable, 10th graders will use graphs, tables, or equations to make predictions about data. Students will identify the relations as linear or non-linear. Students will define...

In this variation activity, students interpret and organize data.  They find the distance between points.  Students use ratios to determine volume  This six-page activity contains approximately 20 problems.  Answers...

Students collect, organize, and compare different data and develop statistical methods such as: average, median, mode and range as a way for decision making by constructing table

Students observe examples and discuss how to interpret them. They then brainstorm examples of possible questions students could use to create a table. They take time to formulate a question and collect data.
