Young scholars explore older people's perspectives on work and retirement by creating charts to reflect statistical trends and formulate interview questions. They write follow-up articles that record and comment on the attitudes of their community's workers.
Students count candy by color and then calculate mean, median, and mode. They count candy and use the data to calculate mean, median, and mode (by color) and apply their learning to another collection of data.
Students explore the concepts of mean, median, and mode. They develop an understanding and familiarity with these concepts. Students explore mean and median in an efficient way. Students explore three different measures of center.
Students conduct probability experiments. For this rescue mission lesson, sudents play a game and collect statistical data. They organize and interpret the data and determine the probability of success. Students plot points on a coordinate plane.
Read G is for Googol: A Math Alphabet to explore probability. Young scholars read the story then participate in several probability experiments such as coin flipping and dice rolling. They create charts for these activities and analyze the probabilities of certain events by viewing the data in the charts.
In this statistics and probability worksheet, young statisticians solve and complete 13 different problems related to probability, percentages, and normal distributions. They consider data models, assumptions about the models, and find probabilities based on models.
Young scholars use probabilities to make decisions. In this statistics instructional activity, students explore theoretical and experimental probability. They develop strategies for analyzing probability.
Students examine the differences between experimental and theoretical probability. The lesson plan includes sample problems that consist of space and tree diagrams. Students also use a number dice to play a game and determine different outcomes.
In this probability and statistics worksheet, young scholars find compound dependent and independent probability of given situations. They identify the mean, mode, range and median of sets. This two-page worksheet contains explanations, examples and six problems.
Students investigate the area of squares and circles. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the area and probability of simple events. They work on a laptop using Safari.
