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 comes with an excellent website, and many good worksheets...

Class members are introduced to probability using terms such as impossible, unlikely, likely, and certain. Numbers between zero and one are associated with the descriptions of probability. Pupils find the likelihood of chance experiments...

Second graders explore probability. For this math lesson plan, 2nd graders discuss the possibility of choosing a certain colored tile from a bag. Students perform experiments and describe the outcomes as certain, possible, unlikely and...

Ninth graders divide in pairs 3 cards with the words possible, impossible and certain on them. Ask questions of the class and get the students to hold up the word that describes the event (for example) Tomorrow it will snow. You have...

Students evaluate if an event is certain, probable, or impossible. They design and create a spinner to be used in a game which demonstrates the possible outcome of an event.

Number patterns can seem mysterious. Help your learners unravel these mysteries as they complete an intriguing task. Through examination, collaborative groups determine that they are able to produce all integers above a certain...

Take a chance with an activity sure to improve your class's skills. An introductory lesson focuses on probability and chance. It shows how probability is always a value between zero and one, i.e., the probability of an event is always...

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.

Enhance your next lesson on probability with a text rich presentation intended to teach the language associated with probability. The use of decimals, fractions, and percents are discussed as well are the terms, likely, unlikely, and...

Students develop a list of possible outcomes as a method of finding probability related to a pizza statistics problems. They read the problems together as a class, brainstorm ways to solve the problem, and in partners solve the pizza...

Students explore the concept of probability.  For this probability lesson, students roll a six-sided number cube and record the frequency of each outcome.  Students graph their data using a frequency chart and keep tally marks...

 Students explore the likelihood of events.  In this logical thinking lesson plan, 3rd graders are given several scenarios and determine whether the possibility of the described event actually happening is likely, unlikely, or...

First graders use probability terminology to describe all possible outcomes of certain events. In this probability lesson, 1st graders use counters to create a pretend "purse" of objects. Students create their own probability...

Students predict, using a fraction or a ratio, the possibility of an event happening and place that fraction or ratio on a Likelihood Line. In Part Two of the lesson, they conduct an experiment to determine theoretical and experimental...

In this probability worksheet, 11th graders review basic probability concepts such as chance, probability lines, and possible outcomes. There are 6 problems on here.

Eighth graders investigate the concepts of probability while performing data analysis. They apply statistical methods in order to measure or predict some possible outcomes. The information is collected and graphed, 8th graders analyze...

In this math worksheet, students make estimates to consider the possibility of each event taking place from impossible to likely.

For this marble probability worksheet, 8th graders solve and complete 7 different statements related to a bag full of marbles. First, they identify and read through the data table at the top of the sheet. Then, students determine the...

After completing an assessment task where they express numbers as the difference of squares (i.e., 9 = 5^2 – 4^2), class members note any patterns that they see in the problems.

Solids come in many shapes and sizes. Using geometry, scholars create two-dimensional cross-sections of various three-dimensional objects. They develop the lesson further by finding the volume of solids. The module then shifts...

Connect ratios, probability, and combination outcomes with a challenging activity idea. It guides your learners through probability of an event as fractions or ratios, on a number line, and with correct vocabulary. The class will be...

Take a chance on an informative resource. Scholars conduct probability experiments involving coins and number cubes to generate data. Compiling class data helps connect experimental probability to theoretical probability.

By examining a set of dice roll data, statisticians determine the probability of different sums occurring. They visit an interactive website and determine how many different vacation outfits Bobbie Bear will have based on the colored...

Middle school math whizzes view a PowerPoint tutorial on tree diagrams. Using "Anthonio's Pizza Palace," an interactive activity involving the selection of pizza toppings, they use Pascal's triangle as a tree diagram. This is an...
