Instructional Ideas
- Have class research to find other pairs of variables that have linear relationships and pairs of variables that have nonlinear relationships
- Use a projector or electronic whiteboard to project the given scatter plots to make it easier to discuss as a class
Classroom Considerations
- Lesson 12 of a 20-lesson module
- The last scatter plot is unreadable in PDF files but readable in the Doc files
Pros
- Provides a step between previous learning of scatter plots in 8th grade and the next lesson
- Contains sample solutions for independent practice
Cons
- None
