Events and Venn Diagrams
Time for statistics and learning to overlap! Learners examine Venn Diagrams as a means to organize data. They then use the diagrams to calculate simple and compound probabilities.

Investigation - What's in the Bag?
If you have or can create a set of tiles, numbered one through eight, then you can implement this hands-on lesson about probability models. Individuals draw a tile from a bag, record its number, and then return it to the bag. They...

Probability of Repeated Independent Events
Statisticians analyze different samples to find independent and dependent events. In this probability lesson, pupils predict the outcome and then calculate the real outcome. They create a tree diagram to help predict the probability of...

Probability and Expected Value
Learners collect data and analyze it. In this statistics lesson, students make predictions using different outcomes of trials.

What are My Chances?
Students calculate the chance of an event occurring. In this statistics lesson, students use combination and permutation to calculate the probability of an event occurring. They differentiate between theoretical and experimental...

The Real Meal Deal
Burgers and salads and sodas, oh my! Scholars use a menu to investigate the Fundamental Counting Principle. They create tree diagrams to illustrate the number of possible choices for each given scenario.

How do We Treat Our Environment?
Seventh graders explore the concept of collecting data. In this data collection lesson, 7th graders survey others about their environmental habits. Students graph their data.
