Pika Chew
Students work in collaborative teams with specific roles, use the Internet to research the behavior and ecology of pikas, make predictions about survival rates of pikas in different habitats and organize their data in graphs.
Curated OER
Problem Solving
Second graders practice problem solving strategies. For this problem solving lesson, 2nd graders use strategies such as guess and check, acting out, drawing pictures and looking for patterns to solve problems. Students work in groups to...

How High Are the Clouds?
Students analyze height and collect data to create a graph. In this statistics lesson, students use central tendencies to analyze their data and make predictions. They apply concept of statistics to other areas of academics to make a...
Curated OER
What are the Chances: A Game of Chance!
Sixth graders experiment with dice, playing cards, pennies and computer-generated simulations to calculate probability. They use compiled data to make predictions.
Curated OER
Graphing Scatterplots
Young scholars examine scatterplots and determine the equation of a line using the slope-intercept method. Students interpret graphs, draw inferences, and sketch a curve of best fit for the graph. Based upon patterns in the graphs,...
Curated OER
Trends of Snow Cover and Temperature in Alaska
Students compare NASA satellite data observations with student surface measurements of snow cover and temperature. They practice data collection, data correlations, and making scientific predictions.
Curated OER
Equations
In these equation worksheets, students solve 2 multi-step word problems. Students must set and solve equations as well as make predictions given their equations.

I'm so Crushed
As an experiment is demonstrated for them, students write down their observations and brainstorm questions that can help them understand what they saw. After watching the experiment again—which demonstrates a soda can collapsing due to...
Curated OER
Graph Creator
Learners rewrite equations using algebraic symbols. In this algebra lesson, students graph linear equations using the slope and y intercept. They make predictions about their graphs and analyze the results.
Curated OER
Mean and Median
Pupils identify the different central tendencies. For this probability lesson, students create the correct type of graphs to analyze their data. They make predictions and draw conclusions from their data.
Curated OER
Fibonacci Patterns
Students solve problems using the Fibonacci Patterns. In this geometry instructional activity, students trackthe growing rate of a rabbit population. They collect the data and graph their results. They make predictions based on their...
Curated OER
Boat Design
Students build a boat and make predictions. In this geometry lesson, students design a cargo boat. They must show that the boat they designed can carry the cargo.
Curated OER
The Probability Scale
Young scholars collect data and make predictions. For this probability lesson, students perform experiments calculating the chance of an event occurring. They draw conclusion based on their data.
Curated OER
Entrance Ticket
Young scholars collect data on different events and word problems. In this algebra lesson, students use a table to organize their data. They graph their coordinate pairs on a coordinate plane and make predictions.
Curated OER
Modeling Population Growth
Young scholars collect data on population growth. In this statistics instructional activity, students graph their data and make predictions. They find the linear regression and the best fit line.
Curated OER
Exploring F function Graphs
Using three set of data that relate temperature to another variable, 10th graders will use graphs, tables, or equations to make predictions about data. Students will identify the relations as linear or non-linear. Students will define...
