Seventh graders explore probability. In this probability lesson, 7th graders investigate modern day uses of probability. Students demonstrate probability through an experiment using dice.

Learners use skills that are directly related to alcohol, tobacco and other drug choices (e.g., refusal skills, decision making, stress reduction skills)

Help learners examine racial profiling of Arab-Americans and Middle Eastern Americans in the wake of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. They will be asked to look at beliefs, actions, and behavior towards this group of people...

Consider how well students' favorite TV shows, movies and video games reflect the diversity of society. The lesson introduces your class to several media literacy concepts, such as how media conveys values and messages, as well as the...

Using an online internet simulation, learners will role-play various members of a family living in rural Haiti. The objective is to increase global awareness by requiring them to consider poverty as an obstacle to education in Haiti....

Emerging consumers recognize the types and denominations of U.S. currency. They listen to a guest speaker (if possible) and view a video.  They create their own money using styrofoam and a toothpick for engraving. Consider creating...

Dice up fractions and bring this game into the classroom. Players roll dice to create fractions, and then have to find an equivalent fraction on the board. Once they get three in a row, they win! 

How likely is it that the school cafeteria will serve chicken tomorrow? Discover the concept of probability with the roll of the dice. Pupils evaluate the liklihood of several statments about everyday life. Then, a mathematical...

In this combinations activity, students solve 4 short answer problems. Students determine the number of combinations possible to pick a given number of a item out of a total possible.

Young scholars examine how many different outfits can be made out of a given set of different colored shirts and pants. In this word problem lesson, students list or graph the possible results of an experiment. Young scholars make a list...

Everyone loves a lesson that involves throwing things around! To understand probability, your experimenters will predict how different cylinder-shaped objects will land when tossed. When the data is collected, they will calculate the...

Make probability fun and test your learners' knowledge of math probability vocabulary. Print out this crossword puzzle and see if they know enough about outcomes and experiments to fill in the blanks. The answer key is attached in...

Count the benefits of using the resource. The second installment of a 21-part module focuses on the fundamental counting principle to determine the number of outcomes in a sample space. It formalizes concepts of permutations and...

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....

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.

Investigate how long-run outcomes approach the calculated probability distribution. The 10th installment of a 21-part module continues work on probability distributions from the previous lesson. They pool class data to see how conducting...

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...

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

Can you spare a 10? Scholars determine digits that could complete a two-digit subtraction problem. They must find all possible combinations of digits and provide an explanation for their reasoning.
