Saving the Bald Eagle
Students plot on a coordinate plane. In this algebra lesson, students identify points on a coordinate plane and graph lines given coordinate pairs. They create a model as they study bald eagles and their growth and decay.
Curated OER
Function Tables
Young scholars identify function using tables of data. In this algebra lesson plan, students create a tale of point and plot on a coordinate plane. They analyze the graph as being a function or not.

Surface Meteorological Observation System (SMOS)
Learners investigate local surface weather conditions. They log weather conditions for thirty days, develop a graph, plot cloud cover, and compare/contrast the graphed lines of various weather factors.
Curated OER
Probability Distributions
Students collect and plot data on a graph. In this statistics lesson, students analyze the distribution of a sample and predict the outcome. They find the line of best fit and discuss what would make the sample larger.
Curated OER
Estimation and Pattern Discovery
Students collect sunflower heads from their community garden. They estimate its seed count using different strategies. They graph their estimations on a graph and use calculators to find the actual total.
