Graph Interpretation Practice
I created this worksheet as a review for students entering my science classes after a long summer of taking selfies. It also helps me assess their incoming knowledge and determine if they need more practice. Students are asked to analyze and interpret data for 7 graphs (line, bar and pie). I have uploaded this in a .docx format so you can modify and differentiate the questions to meet your students' and classroom needs. ANSWER KEY IS INCLUDED. Enjoy!

Charts and Graphs for Middle School
Included are thiry-eight graphs, charts, maps, flowcharts, tables and other graphics. These are real data maps taken from the Internet (all sources noted). Under each graphic are five questions that can be answered by using the information provided. The questions range from titles, mean, meadian, to create your own graph.
The pages can be copied back to back to make a workbook. I use this workbook as bellwork while I am taking attendance. Everyday the students answer the question. (I requi

Constructing Graphs - Bar Graphs, Line Graphs, Circle Graphs
**I revised the numbers in the pie graph on this from the first version, these amounts are much more friendly** This activity includes construction of a bar graph, double bar graph, line graph, double line graph, and a circle graph.I put this together after being frustrated about not being able to find any graphing activities appropriate for intermediate grades that would allow me to make graphs with the class on my smartboard. I needed some examples to demonstrate how to take data and create a

Next Generation Science Lab: How Gross is your Phone? A Bacteria Lab
NGSS Claim and Reasoning lab where students design and culture bacteria found on their phone. This is an open ended inquiry lab. Students are given a list of materials and asked to come up with their own procedures to support a claim.
This lab goes with a unit over Bacteria and Viruses. I use this lab as a replacement for the recipe lab of growing bacteria. Since students are designing a test, and using their own property, it makes the learning all that more relevant!

Linear Equation Web - Translate Between Linear Representations
This activity is an organized way to have students translate between various representations of a linear function (COMMON CORE F8.2; F8.3 and ALGEBRA 1 Standards). The idea plays on the outline web used to plan a five paragraph essay. I have used this as individual assignments, but the most effective strategy is to work in small groups or centers. The students have a great time helping each other if made into a game with prizes! I have included a blank web for you to be creative! Sometimes, I ha

Analyzing & Sketching Graphs Lesson
This activity requires students to analyze qualitative graphs and explain what they represent. Some of the problems ask students to match scenarios to graphs, some require students to explain a graph in their own words, and finally the last problems ask students to construct a qualitative graph based on a description.
interpreting Linear Equation Word Problems
Students are required to break down linear equation word problems, by determining the equation from context, explaining each variable of the equation and what it represents, as well as graphing the equation. This forces students to understand each piece of what they are graphing instead of just memorizing the formula.
Slope Mats: a hands on "puzzle" manipulative for the slope formula
When students begin using the slope formula, getting the right numbers in the correct locations can be difficult for many. Help your students get a handle on this--literally--with this hands on puzzle approach to filling in values in the slope formula. Great for kinesthetic learners. By Michelle Fries

MATH : IDEAS for Hands-On Mini Activities in Middle School!
I have listed six of the many short labs we do in my Pre-Algebra and Algebra 1 classes. These labs take little or no set up with only a few basic materials. The kids love them because they can move around, work with a partner, and it breaks up the formality of a math class. These labs cover area of a parallelogram, percent models, circle graphs, distance between two points, coordinate graphing, parallel lines, systems of equations, graphing, data collection, LCMs, and the Pythagorean Theorem.

Olympic Proportions (Eight 7th Grade Math Stations)
This lesson connects 7th grade Common Core math standards in Ratio/Proportions and Geometry to the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. Students will work in groups of 3 to 5 and rotate about every 15 minutes to each station. Students will apply their knowledge of ratio, rate, unit rate, constant of proportionality, tables, graphs, writing equations, and computing actual lengths from a map using scale. Stations include interesting facts about the winter Olympics in Russia and/or require stu

A great fun activity to introduce students to Circle Graphs/Pie Charts, and how to create one on their own. Each student (or pair) is given a fun sized bag of M&Ms, which comes with ~14-17 per bag, and lines them up along the circle with same colors grouped together and M&Ms equally spaced apart. Once the circle is set up this way they will create the wedges of the Circle Graph by drawing lines from the center in between each color. Students color code each section to correspond with the

Reflecting Snowflakes
Students are given a list of ordered pairs to plot, and then reflect three times. Through this process, they create a snowflake!
This activity is great at reinforcing how to reflect without using a graph ( to reflect across the x axis, the x coordinate stays the same and the y becomes the opposite. To reflect across the y axis, the y coordinate stays the same and the x becomes the opposite). The students first reflect the points, and then plot them on the coordinate plane.

Writing an Equation from a Graph
The purpose of this activity is to allow students practice writing equations from a graph.
I've included 12 station cards that are all centered on European countries. I tell students that they are going on a European "vacation" and their job is to visit each country (I also like to put fun facts about each country next to the station posters, to add a little extra to the activity!). Eight of the stations are having students write one-operation equations, while four stations have gold stars,
