Firefighter Training In this video segment from Cyberchase, Harry decides to train as a firefighter and uses line graphs to chart his physical fitness progress.	4-8	Video
Attention to Scaling In this video segment from Cyberchase, the CyberSquad adds a scale to their bar graph to give a more accurate picture of the bug infestation at the Cybrary.	3-6	Video
Building Venn Diagrams Students utilize Venn diagrams in an introduction to prime numbers, prime factorization and determining least common multiple (LCM) and greatest common factor (GCF).	4-8	Lesson Plan
Decreasing Water Levels The CyberSquad creates a line graph to help tell the story of the decreasing water levels in Sensible Flats in this video segment from Cyberchase.	3-6	Video
Describing Range and Measures of Central Tendency in Shoe Sizes Students are introduced to various measures of central tendency (range, mode, median, and mean) and they explore the advantages and disadvantages of each measure.	5-8	Lesson Plan
Determining Rates from Graphs Students learn about and practice calculating rates (positive, negative and zero) using data from graphs.	4-8	Lesson Plan
