Compatibility

For optimal use, I highly recommend printing this resource. While digital tools can be incredibly useful in many contexts, some of the questions in this resource involve tasks that are best completed with pencil and paper. Printed versions of the resource provide students with the physical space they need to work through these tasks and fully engage with the material.

Instructional Math Video

In order to provide the best possible learning experience for your students, I've included a QR code link to a video that I created to assist with using this worksheet. While the video is not professionally produced, it can be an incredibly helpful tool for students who are learning remotely, were absent during the activity, or are homeschooling. Additionally, it can serve as a substitute lesson plan in case of unexpected absences or classroom disruptions.

The video includes several examples and provides step-by-step instructions that can help students complete the activity successfully. By offering this additional resource, we hope to provide your students with the support they need to master the concepts covered in the worksheet.

Math Standards

Teacher Feedback

"I loved this resource! It asked a variety of questions about scatter plots and lines of best fit."

"Good worksheet to have students explain information in a scatterplot that they made. Really liked that kids could (see examples) using the QR code. Planned on using just ran out of time. Maybe next year."

"This worked great for my small group that I coteach with in 8th grade. This helped me reteach the concept in a way for my students to better understand what they are learning in the general education setting."
