C is for Cookie-A MEAN-ingful Graphing Activity

Capture the engagement of your young mathematicians with a collaborative graphing activity. Using a deck of zoo animal picture cards, learners select a picture from the deck, record the chosen animal on a graph, and then replace the card...

Here is a fantastic lesson plan counting coins, interpreting graphs, and the concept of "greater than" and "less than." Young mathematicians utilize worksheets embedded in the plan in order to practice these concepts. The worksheets are...

Introduce young mathematicians to the concept of coordinate planes with this fun drawing activity. Given a grid whose rows are labeled with letters and columns with numbers, children must color in each square according to the directions...

Everything you need for a mini-unit on bar graphs is included in this lesson plan! It outlines three lessons and includes worksheets. Learners taste pretzels, shoot baskets (switching off hands), and grab candy, graphing results...

Practice mean, median, mode, and rates with a packet of educational worksheets. Kids learn about rates on nutrition labels, unit pricing, and air pressure using a barometer in a variety of different methods and activities.

Animals move in interesting ways! Get your young learners to examine various types of animal movement in this group graphing activity. Although directions are not explicit, it seems students are assigned an animal and categorize the...

Roll the dice with this activity and teach young mathematicians about probability. Record outcomes for rolling two number cubes in order to determine what is most likely to happen. Graph the data and investigate patterns in the results,...

Learn about life in the Arctic while practicing how to graph and interpret data with this interdisciplinary lesson. Starting with a whole group data-gathering exercise, students are then given a worksheet on which they analyze and create...

Cooperative groups are formed for this graphing activity. Each group must construct a graph that represents how many eyelets (the holes for laces in shoes), are present in their group. A whole-class bar graph is eventually constructed...

In this math/nutrition lesson, the nutritional value of 3 snack foods is recorded on a data chart and represented on a bar graph. Students analyze and compare information, construct data charts and related bar graphs, and draw...
