Environmental Graphing
Young scholars experiment with graphing. In this graphing introduction lesson plan, students complete four activities: 1) a bar graph based on class birthdays 2) an estimation graph of the raisins in raisin bread 3) another estimation...
Curated OER
A Day at the Beach
Student read Sheryl Wilson's story, "A Day at the Beach" while classifying items they find. They design a chart of the items before using educational graphing software to create a graph.
Curated OER
Exploring Probability
Fourth graders participate in a lesson that explores probability. They use candy and model cubes to experiment with different outcomes that can be charted if the students can proceed to the objective of the lesson. They discover how...
Curated OER
Antlion Pit Building Investigation
Students design and perform an experiment related to comparing and contrasting antlion pits. Given a set of parameters, students select a hypothesis and perform observations on antlion pits. They record data and use this date to support...
Curated OER
Comparing Pulse Rates
Young scholars participate in a lab that demonstrate one example of how the human body maintains homeostasis. Students collect data from themselves and observe how their own bodies react to exercise.
