- "Create, Interpret,
and Solve Problems Involving Pictographs"
- A
Picture is Worth a Thousand Words
On this an interactive site, students can
collect statistical information/data to analize
and graph.
- Activities
by GLCE:Data and Probability New
- A website is designed to provide math links
for students, guidance for parents, and standards
based resources for teachers. You can find resources
by the GLCE. Mr. Maffesoli compiled all of the
links contained in this site. The linked sites
themselves were created by other individuals
and organizations.
- Aunty
Math's Daily Math Problem
This is a student activity site that features
a daily math challenge for K-5 learners. Students
are given a problem to solve and the basic information
needed to solve; the student collects and organizes
the data, solves the problem, and can email the
solution to Aunty Math. Also has past challenges
available for students to solve.
- Area
Probability - Throw Darts!
Outstanding
- This site includes student-based activities
in collecting data, testing, and predicting
outcomes
using variables, by throwing either 100 or 1000
darts (electronically) at a changeable dart
board.
Also has a link to lesson plans for the teacher,
accessed through free sign-up/membership. Activities
address several standards and benchmarks.
- Best
Weather - Math Webquest
This is a complete webquest of math activities
revolving around the collection of weather data
from various locations to determine, based upon
the data, the best city to live in. A very student-oriented
activity, should make for an interesting class
project and introduction to webquests. Meets
the
criteria for Standards 1,2, and 3, with many
of their required benchmarks.

- Coin
Toss
This site offers a lesson plan using coin
tosses to collect, record, and analyze data;
variables
are introduced to facilitate predicting and inferring.
Very simple site, but effective.
- Create
a Graph
This interactive site explains four different
kinds of graphs. The students also have
the opportunity make their own graphs on this
site.
- Creepy
Class Creatures
Students survey their classmates to find
their favorite creepy creature and construct
a bar graph
of the responses. They could then present and
explain the graph to their classmates. Teacher
lesson plan only.
- Data
Analysis, Probability, and Discrete MathThis
is an interactive site that has activities
for working with coordinates and graphing
for K-5.
- Graphing,
Data Collections and Coordinate Points
This site provides information about the
kinds of graphs. It offers sites to complete
graphs
with information given. There are interactive
sites where the answers you give help you to
complete
a graph.
- Let's
Do Math!
This site is interactive for students
with real world problem-solving. The problem
works through the process: collect, organize,
and present data. They do the problems
on the computer or try it on their own.
- Let's
Graph
On this interactive site, students to
can solve, change and design a math problem.
- M&M's;
Line Plots and Graphing
Outstanding
- Very interesting site with both teacher
lesson plans, student activities, and a variety
of data recording forms to explore data collection,
organization, and presentation of colors of
M
& M's in individual bags. Originally part
of an Internet data collection project, it can
be used as a stand-alone set of activities.
- Make
a Living Graph
Make a living graph allows the student to
choose what things they would like to graph
and
make a hypotheses and then graph the topic. Teacher
lesson plan only.
- Pan
Balance Test Page
This is an interactive site for students to manipulate
objects for balance. The site uses a balance
scale
to represent algebraic concepts.
- Snake
Patterns
Students use given rules to generate several
stages of a pattern and predict the outcome
for any stage.
The teacher guides students through a discussion
to probe their understanding of the patterns
and
introduce symbolic representation. Grade
level 3-5 will be able to download the activity
sheet and complete the project.
- Solving
Equations With Alge-Tiles
This site gives ideas about teaching beginning
algebra using tiles. Even though the site may
be trying to sell tiles, it appears any classroom
tiles may be used. This site is not interactive
for students, but will give teachers some interesting
teaching ideas.
- The
Million $$ Mission
Outstanding
- This is both a teacher lesson plan
and a student activity site, featuring a very
real-world problem for students to solve by collecting
and analyzing data, then predicting the outcome
and final results. Very interesting site!
