1	The Simple Astrid and Its Variations Beeler, Robert A., Harris, Elizabeth, Milam, Sean 11 March 2011 (has links) The astrid is a family of graphs in the Cartesian plane that frequently appears as an enrichment activity in the elementary setting. Many variations of the astrid exist, but the most common is a finite collection of straight line segments. The exploration of the graph theoretic properties of this version of the astrid will be the main focus of this paper. graph families graph properties Mathematics and Statistics
2	Graph Theory for the Middle School. Robinson, Laura Ann 15 August 2006 (has links) (PDF) After being introduced to graph theory and realizing how it can be utilized to solve real-world problems, the author decided to create modules of study on graph theory appropriate for middle school students. In this thesis, four modules were developed in the area of graph theory: an Introduction to Terms and Definitions, Graph Families, Graph Operations, and Graph Coloring. It is written as a guide for middle school teachers to prepare teaching units on graph theory. graph families graph operations graph theory map coloring middle school Curriculum and Instruction Education Science and Mathematics Education
