Playing With Probability
Students rotate through work stations where they compute problems of theoretical and experimental probability. For this probability lesson plan, students use simulations of a lottery system.
Curated OER
Replacement and Probability
Students explore sampling with and without replacement. They explore the effects on the probability of drawing a desired object. Students examine probability and the difference between sampling with and without replacement.
