Use coordinate grid paper to plot points and identify shapes that are already plotted on the paper by saying their coordinates. Pupils also measure the distance between points and play the game Battleship. There are several web links and...

Your learners analyze a table of real-life data in order to write an equation that best models the information. Exponential, quadratic, and linear rates of changes are all possibilities in this task.

Herbivores and carnivores just don't get along. Using a box of animal crackers, classes collect data about the injury status of herbivores and carnivores in the box. They complete the process of chi-square testing on the data from...

Learners enter information about their heartbeats into a spreadsheet. They construct data displays and calculate statistics. They describe and justify their conclusions from the data collected.

Students make educated guesses and explain their reasoning and compile, graph, and map weather data. They then study environmental weather extremes on earth and discover that many variables determine climate.

Seventh graders use toothpicks to investigate a series of designs and identify patterns. Data is organized and analyzed using tables and graphs, and students make generalizations using algebraic expressions.

Fifth graders study how to measure distance.  In this graphing motion activity students complete a lab activity that shows them on the computer how to make graphs. 

Students identify function using tables of data. In this algebra instructional activity, students create a tale of point and plot on a coordinate plane. They analyze the graph as being a function or not.

Students solve equations and label it as a function or not. For this algebra lesson, students make a table of values and graph their equation. They identify the domain and range of each graph.

Students graph quadratic functions. In this algebra lesson plan, students identify the vertex and intercepts of a quadratic equations and graph the parabola. They find the axis of symmetry and make a table to find the values of the...

Middle schoolers utilize mathematical concepts such as: measurement, ratio and proportion and geometric probability to analyze the components of the U.S. Flag. They collect, organize and interpret data by constructing charts, tables and...

In this where do plants get their food worksheet, students design an experiment that will disprove the idea that plants obtain their food from soil. Students will set up their experiment and design a data table that will record data over...

Sixth graders practice solving math problems by utilizing a data table. In this number sense instructional activity, 6th graders create a table using the numerical information about a fictitious farm's inventory. Students complete the...

Students explore reaction rates of an enzyme-mediated reaction. They examine the effects of environmental variables on enzyme function. Students collect, graph, and analyze data relating to the reaction.

Sixth graders examine the factors that influence the stability of ecosystems. They construct a miniature ecosystem in a jar that includes plants, small fish, and snails, record the population changes over a period of four weeks, and...

Young scholars solve problems using exponential properties. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between exponents, exponential and log functions. They graph their functions using table and exponents.

Fifth graders take addition timed tests every day for a two week period. Using the data from the timed tests, they create a bar graph using Microsoft Excel computer software, a personal bar graph using graph paper and colored pencils,...

Students make predictions about which bus takes the most/least students in the classroom. They use KidPix bus stamp for each student who goes home on that bus number and record data and discuss predictions.

Fifth graders collect data and prepare data displays using a survey with statistical information.

Students gather data about the weather in Nome, Alaska. For this Nome Temperature lesson, students create an excel graph to explore the weather trends in Nome.  Students will find the average weather and add a trend line to their...

Students use an on line website to simulate the effects of light intensity and wavelength on photosynthesis. In this photosynthesis lesson plan, students determine how wavelength of light and intensity of light affect the rate at which...

High schoolers analyze patterns of exponential models by collecting data in paper folding and M&M investigations. They use graphing calculators to create scatter plots that lead to equations for the exponential models. They then...
