Engage your children with this fun fall activity that integrates math and science. First, your child will excavate to find leaves. Next, they'll examine them to determine the colors. Then, your child will graph their findings.

Okay, engaging in a graphing activity may sound ho-hum, but if you use fun data, it changes the picture entirely.

Liven up a lesson about graphing by helping your third grader compile a bar graph from his classmates' birthday data.

Graph are a great way to organize information. Your child will get to practice graphing by creating a bar graph and a pictorial graph of her friend's names.

Increase your child's confidence in interpreting bar graphs and throw a little candy into the mix to sweeten the learning process.
