Random sampling is as easy as choosing numbers. Teams use random numbers to create a sample of book lengths from a population of 150 books. The groups continue by developing a technique to create samples to compare from two populations...

There's no need to roll dice for this probability experiment, the resource includes them already. Scholars use an interactive to see how including more possibilities as favorable outcomes in a dice activity affects the probabilities....

Young mathematicians make a tree diagram of all possibilities for sandwiches using an interactive. They learn how multiplication speeds up the process of finding the number of outcomes.

Rolling dice is a great way for your mathematicians to get a hands-on approach to probabilities. Use the chart to record whether they rolled a six during ten attempts. Calculate results individually (or in small groups) and then record...

In this counting principle worksheet, students solve 10 problems by applying the counting principle to each one. First, they determine the number of possible outcomes in a coin toss. Then, students the number of different cards with the...

Learners explore number patterns. In this number patterns and probability math lesson, students work in groups to describe the patterns present in the first five rows of Pascal's Triangle, then write numbers to continue this pattern....

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

Students identify the different outcomes given a situation. In this algebra lesson plan, students calculate the possible outcome using the counting principle. They compare and analyze patterns to make their predictions.

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...

For this probability worksheet, students determine the probability or possible outcomes for 40 problems.

In this probability worksheet, students first read the information about complementary events (only two possible outcomes). Students solve 30 mat problems pertaining to probability of an event happening or not happening. This page is...

Eighth graders investigate the basic concepts of probability. In this probability lesson, 8th graders learn the associated probability. They work with spinners, colored cubes in a bag, flip coins, and choose colored candies while they...

Middle and high schoolers determine the probability of dependent events. Students compute both compound and simple probability. This four-page worksheet contains six multi-step problems.

Sixth graders interpret linear and nonlinear graphs. They create graphs based on a problem set. Next, they represent quantitive relationships on a graph and write a story related to graphing.

How many points are needed to define a unique parabola? Individuals work with data to answer this question. Ultimately, they determine the quadratic model when given three points. The concept is applied to data from a dropped...

Students design a rectangular box without a lid that has the largest possible volume using the supplied sheet of centimeter graph paper. They work in groups to construct different size boxes to determine the largest possible volume and...

Sixth graders classify numbers as abundant, deficient, or perfect based on the relationship between the number and its factors. They review factor game using the completed lab sheet. When playing the factor game which type of numbers...

Eighth graders explore problem solving strategies to build a paper bridge with a partner. As a class they discuss a variety of techniques to solve a simple problem, then in pairs construct the longest non-supported single span bridge...

Students create a survey to hand out to determine the best field day park. Using their local area, they select five parks, if possible, that meet the criteria and calculate the distance and estimated time travel. They use this...

Students explore possible outcomes. In this math lesson plan, students list the possible pizza combinations they could offer on the menu of their new pizza shop. Students

Fifth graders complete a mental arithmetic race worksheet while reviewing the associated concepts. In this mental math lesson, 5th graders complete as much of the associated worksheet as they are able to in one minute. They review and...

High schoolers determine an appropriate numerical representation of a problem situation, including roots and powers. They determine an appropriate number of digits to represent an outcome. Pupils are asked to determine how many years...

In this tree diagrams learning exercise, students solve and complete 10 different problems that include creating tree diagrams. First, they toss a coin and roll a die simultaneously to determine the outcomes with a tree diagram. Then,...
