Students perform a science experiment. In this algebra instructional activity, students collect data from their experiment and create a graph. They analyze the graph and draw conclusion.

Students calculate the mileage, gasoline costs, and travel time and costs for a vacation. They conduct a virtual field trip, and create a comparison graph of costs using Microsoft Excel software.

Students analyze height and collect data to create a graph. In this statistics lesson, students use central tendencies to analyze their data and make predictions. They apply concept of statistics to other areas of academics to make a...

Fourth graders conduct surveys to collect data. They analyze and interpret the data, then determine which type of graph is appropriate for the data. Students use the data to make predictions, discover patterns and draw conclusions...

Eighth graders produce and examine two sets of data and create what they believe to be the most appropriate graphs to represent these sets of data. After completing the pre-assessment, they discuss reasons for using each type of graph...

Fifth graders use technology as assistance to collecting random data. Through the random data they will be able to explain the significance of getting a head or tail depending on what was previously landed on. They will then analyze the...

Students analyze data representing real life scenarios.In this algebra lesson, students collect, plot and analyze data using a graph. They use different methods to represent and present their data.

Students construct ratios using the hand as data. They use examples of cortical and trabecular bone found in the long bones to measure circumference, diameter, length, and weight of long bones. They perform computations using growth...

Young scholars recognize, describe and extend patterns in three activities. They organize data, find patterns and describe the rule for the pattern as well as use the graphing calculator to graph the data to make and test predictions. In...

Students are able to identify the characteristics of a variety of graphs (i.e. bar graph, line graph, pie graph, scatter plot, population pyramids, etc.) They recognize how the type of data to be presented plays a role in choosing the...

Aspiring astronauts graph, interpret, and analyze data. They investigate the relationship between two variables in a problem situation. Using both graphic and symbolic representations they will grasp the concept of line of best fit to...

Students explore statistics by completing a graphing activity. In this data analysis lesson, students define a list of mathematical vocabulary terms before unpacking a box of raisins. Students utilize the raisins to plot data on a line...

Students read "Casey at the Bat" and then use individual player statistics (found through internet research)to determine if their players could be considered baseball "heroes". They must justify their choices for "hero" by creating...

Students explore functions, function rules, and data tables. They explore terms of linear functions. Students use computers to analyze the functions. Students write short sentences to explain data tables and simple algebraic expressions.

Students demonstrate their understanding of math skills. In this data analysis lesson, students complete a worksheet requiring them to calculate mean, median, and mode, and create and interpret graphs. Lesson is intended as an assessment...

Students examine graphs to find the most appropriate for various kinds of data.  In this graphing lesson, student create bar, line and circle graphs.  Students create graphs electronically and manually interpreting the data.

Students explore change represented in graphs comparing distance and time. They exchange and share their graphs. Students interpret and create distance versus time line-graphs, and write stories based on these graphs. They interpret a...

Students use calculator and non-calculator methods for analyzing data. They apply data collection and analysis in a study of mass and weight. Students enhance and apply the concept of line of best fit. They master graphing in a plane,...

Learners match a given velocity graph and sketch the corresponding position graph using a graphing calculator. After collecting data from their everyday life, students use specific functions on their calculators to create graphs and...

First graders predict, collect data, and create a graph based on gummy bear colors they are given. In this graphing lesson plan, 1st graders first predict how many colors of gummy bears there are. They then count the colors, graph them,...

Sixth graders determine the mean, range median and mode of a set of numbers and display them. In this data lesson plan students form a set of data and use computer spreadsheet to display the information. They extend of the process...

Sixth graders experiment with an atlatl and dart.  In this sixth grade data management mathematics lesson, 6th graders explore and determine the most suitable methods of displaying data collected from their experimentation with...

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.

Fourth graders compare two sets of data by using a double bar graph. In this data analysis lesson plan, 4th graders study a double bar graph and complete questions based upon the data. Students construct a table to show the data from the...
