Heads or Tails
Seventh graders compare experimental and theoretical probabilities. In this comparing experimental and theoretical probabilities lesson, 7th graders discuss the theoretical probability of flipping a coin. Students flip a coin...
Curated OER
RIP M&M's
Students solve theoretical probability problems. In this algebra lesson, students apply the concept of probabilities to solving real life scenarios. They collect data and graph it using experimental probability.
Curated OER
Another Dartboard
Fifth graders solve a word problem that involves predicting probabilities of an event and making deductions from probabilities. They discuss dice and coins and the probability of rolling each number or face of the coin, and in small...

Marble Grab Bag: Certainly? Maybe? Impossible?
Second graders use a hands-on activity and a data chart to explain the certainty, probability, or impossibility of drawing a particular color of marble from a bag. This lesson plan comes with an excellent website, and many good...
Curated OER
Shake It Up with Scatterplots
Middle schoolers identify how to use a scatterplot to compare two sets of data to determine if they are related. Then they identify and describe the definition of regression line (the "line of best fit"). Students also identify how...
Curated OER
One Out of Six
Students investigate basic concepts of chance and probability. They make a number cube to predict which number might be rolled the most often out of 20 consecutive rolls and tally the results. Number cube template included.
