Equation of a Line
In this equation of a line worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 4 different multiple choice problems. First, they use the median fit method to determine the equation that most likely represents the line of best fit for the data...
Curated OER
What Are The Chances
Students calculate the probability of an event occurring. In this probability lesson plan, students differentiate between independent, dependent or compound events. They find the range of the data.
Curated OER
Curve Fitting and the TI-85 Calculator
Seventh graders follow a step-by-step guide for using graphing calculator to determine equations which best fit data graphed. They gather data from various sites on the web, or they do searches to find information necessary to complete...
Curated OER
Circle Graphs
Sixth graders interpret, create, and display data in a circle graph. In this circle graph lesson plan, 6th graders use a compass, protractors, pizza boxes, and more to create a circle graph and analyze the data they put into it.
Curated OER
Creeping
Students observe, measure, and graph a model of slow down slope movement representing soil creep. This task assesses students' abilities to collect, record, and organize data, set up graph axes, plot data points, draw line graphs, apply...
Curated OER
Will There be Enough Water?
Young scholars investigate water usage, water available, and water demand historically in the local area. They use projections of water usage, availability and demand up to the year 2050. Students use graphs to relate as well as compare...
Curated OER
Family Vacation
Students use math to plan a trip by houseboat down the Mississippi River. They research and obtain information on the Mississippi River and its surroundings and use multiple graphs to represent their data.

Modeling Population Growth
Students collect data on population growth. For this statistics lesson, students graph their data and make predictions. They find the linear regression and the best fit line.
Curated OER
Monitoring Energy Expenditure
Students use heart rate monitors and complete a swimming and running test. These tests allow students to obtain personal data, to manipulate the data through calculations of various parameters, and to graphically represent the data.
Curated OER
Graphing Made Easy
Fourth graders discover the appropriate way to construct and analyze bar, line, picto, and circle graphs. They set up frequency tables and perform some statistical analysis (mean, median, and mode) on their data.
Curated OER
Fertilizers, Pesticides and Health
Young scholars apply real data to create and calculate algebraic equations. Students create a visual to represent the concentration for one part per million and apply unit analysis to verify measurement computations. Young scholars...
