Lesson: Correlation Mathematics • 8th Grade

Start Practising

In this lesson, we will learn how to deal with linear correlation and distinguish between different types of correlation.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

understand and describe how two different variables can be related,
determine if two different variables have a linear or nonlinear relationship,
describe the relationship between two different variables in terms of positive and negative correlation,
describe how strongly correlated two different variables are based on the proximity to a line of best fit on a scattergraph or a scattergraph without a line of best fit.
