- By Brenda Goforth.
- Be the meteorologist
- Students use internet data to plot the path of a hurricane over several days. At designated points, students will decide which areas of the coast to put under a hurricane warning and will justify their decisions. This lesson uses real weather data and allows students to "be the meteorologist."
- Format: lesson plan (grade 7 Science)
- Watching the weather
- In CareerStart lessons: Grade seven, page 3.5

- Format: lesson plan (grade 7 Science)
- By Emma Couch.Adapted by Mitzi Talbert.
- Graphing and measurement go hand-in-hand
- Students learn how to use customary measurement using inches or centimeters and data collection and graphing simultaneously. Students will measure the length of their foot, arm span, hand span, or head circumference to the nearest centimeter or inch. Next they will collect and represent their data by constructing a graph.

- To be or not to be... linear
- The student will determine the correlation between two variables. They will graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane, determine a best fit line, find slope and intercepts, and write the equation of a line. This lesson plan is geared for both 8th grade math and algebra.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 8–12 Mathematics)
- By Kyle Gorton.
- Bouncing ball experiment
- In this experiment students should be in groups of 3. Students will drop a ball from different heights and measure the corresponding bounce. Since each group will use a different ball, they will generate different sets of data. They will be asked to discuss and compare their linear function with that of their classmates. They should practice measuring the ball bounce before they begin to collect data.
