Seventh graders investigate the concept of probability. They use the game of hangman to create engagement and context for conducting the lesson. They create a spreadsheet with data that is given. Students make predictions based on data.

Seventh graders collect data and make predictions. In this geometry lesson, 7th graders work in tiers collecting data and plotting it. They make inferences and predictions about their collected data.

Learners measure water and make predictions about efficiency.

Students collect, organize by table, and examine census data in a simulation, estimate the size of the population in the simulation and make predictions based on the collection of census simulation data.

Young scholars build and program a LEGO robotic car as well as measure and graph its speed. They acquire familiarity with principles of construction, motion, design and problem solving. They compare a robot's speed over two different...

Students work in collaborative teams with specific roles, use the Internet to research the behavior and ecology of pikas, make predictions about survival rates of pikas in different habitats and organize their data in graphs.

Students place different subspecies of a CA salamander are placed on grid map of CA according to where samples were collected. Then discuss patterns of their distribution, their likely evolutionary relationships, and probable sequence of...

Third graders analyze the dangers of using tobacco products. In this personal health lesson plan, 3rd graders predict and summarize the dangers of experimenting with tobacco.

Students calculate the chance of an event occurring. In this statistics lesson, students use combination and permutation to calculate the probability of an event occurring. They differentiate between theoretical and experimental...

Students investigate probability and the chance of an even happening. In this algebra lesson, students incorporate their knowledge of probability to solve problems and relate it to the real world. They learn to make decisions based on data.

Young scholars recognize the range and variety of severe weather. They plan for severe weather conditions that they may experience on an immediate and long-term scale and use climate information to make personal choices about where to...

Second graders explore probability. In this math lesson plan, 2nd graders discuss the possibility of choosing a certain colored tile from a bag. Students perform experiments and describe the outcomes as certain, possible, unlikely and...

Learners, after reading "The Button Box" by Margarette S. Reid, analyze real-world data by surveying a sample space. They predict the generalization onto a larger population utilizing calculators and computers. Students total categories,...

Third graders reinforce the probability of gender by uising a coin toss, as they continue to search for the answers to genetics questions by using mathematical expectations of probability.

Students collect experimental data and record it on a frequency table. After accessing an Internet coin toss simulation site they discover that repetition of an experiment may result in different outcomes. They identify the mutually...

Fifth graders investigate the concept of median, mode, and range using a simple model for display purposes. They examine different shaped crackers out of a box and identify the ones that occur the most. Then the calculations for the...

In this math worksheet, 6th graders make predictions of the possible outcomes using the data taken from two word problems. The answers are chosen from the outcomes that are possible using the multiple choice format.

Students explore the concept of using consumer data and statistics to aid in the consumer decision making process. In this consumer data and statistics instructional activity, students research consumer data and statistics. Students...

Students apply reading strategies to improve understanding and fluency. They use their imagination and create their own short stories. They identify words as various parts of the story - including setting, character, problem, solution...

Fifth graders identify a set of data from a real world problem. In this statistics lesson, 5th graders identify the range, mode, median and mean using some manipulatives. They write words randomizing the letters.

Learners gain practice reading coordinates and plotting points by participating in the Coordinates! Game. They demonstrate and test their skills with graph paper and the Maze Game.
