Learners collect data about energy usage and use mathematical calculations to analyze their data. In this energy conservation and statistics math activity, students survey their homes to complete an energy usage worksheet. Learners...

Even though this assignment is brought to you by Physics Lab Online, it is best used as a math practice. Middle schoolers calculate the range, mean, mode, and median for a list of eight different paper clip densities. They analyze...

New Horizons began its journey to Pluto in 2006. Ten years later, it continues its mission. In that time, scholars have surely grown, but how much more will they grow by the time New Horizons reaches its destination? Find out with an...

Sixth graders explore the scientific method by conducting an in class experiment. In this scientific averages lesson, 6th graders discuss the concept of the scientific method, and define the different mathematical averages, mean, median...

There are patterns in nearly everything — even earthquakes. Pairs research current earthquakes to see if there are any patterns. They determine the mean, median, and mode of the earthquake data, along with the maximum and...

Bring the sun to your class! Young scholars analyze actual solar wind data in the second lesson of a five-part series. Their analysis includes speed, temperature, and density data.

Fourth graders describe weather data using the mean, median and mode. In this mean, median and mode lesson, 4th graders understand how to calculate data using mean, median and mode and why they would use each one.

The next time you read a magazine or watch the news, make note of how many graphs you see because they are everywhere! Here, scholars collect, enter, and graph data using computers. The graphs are then analyzed to aid in discussion of...

In this excellent stem and leaf plotter worksheet, students construct, arrange and write a report of how to interpret the leaves they collect in this data analysis. Students answer 4 detailed questions regarding the data analysis...

Explore the habitats around you with an activity that takes kids out of the classroom to learn about the local variety of habitats and the living things that call them home. In small groups, scholars investigate their surroundings,...

Students research the impact of craters. In this range, mean, median and mode lesson, students complete an experiment with a marble to simulate the effects of a crater. Students collect and analyze data finding the range, mean, median...

Students research and collect data regarding temperature changes for a specific location and find the mean, median, and mode for their data. In this climate change lesson, students choose a location to research and collect data regarding...

Fourth graders explore median, mode, mean, and range using information about the planets and our solar system.

Learners study weather using a graphing calculator in this lesson. They collect data for temperature and relative humidity for every hour over a day from the newspaper, then place the data in their handheld calculator and examine it for...

Students examine the differences between a virus and a bacteriophage. They explore various websites, identify the parts of a virus and a bacteriophage, and construct a model of a virus or bacteriophage.

Students use water, beakers, hot plates, paper dots, and goggles to participate in a hands on activity where they see how a convection current creates wind. In this convection current lesson plan, students participate in a hands on...

Young scholars conduct an experiment in small groups, draw conclusions about the amount heat of a compound achieves and practice their data analysis skills.

Students learn mean, median, and mode through setting up a science experiment. In this measures of central tendency instructional activity, students drop a marble into a box with 2 inches of flour and record the data. Students could also...

Fourth graders learn about the Solar System while they use mean, median and mode to explore the characteristics of the planets. Students web publish expository writing.

In this sample mean learning exercise, students explore different ways "average" is used. Students use this information to find the sample mean of the height of a large class of students. Students find the mean, median, mode and range of...

In this data analysis worksheet, students answer 4 questions using a weather report chart. Topics include mean, median, mode and range.
