Form an Opinion-Cats
Pupils discuss which animal makes a better pet. In this statistics instructional activity, students examine the factors that cause people to choose one animal over the other (cat or dog). Pupils discuss their own opinions,...
Curated OER
Maverick
Students apply probability to real life situation. In this statistics lesson, students play poker and make predictions on what hand they will get next. They apply their knowledge of how probability works to make their predictions.
Curated OER
What Are the Risks?
Students use dice to determine the risk of being exposed to radon. They practice using new vocabulary related to probability and ratios. They make predictions about the results and record their observations.
Curated OER
Lara's Equiprobable Dice
Learners try some new exercises involving probability. These are, first of all, that the probability of getting a given total when two dice are rolled is equal to the number of possible ways of getting that total, divided by 36 (the...
Curated OER
Non-Random Variables: NBA Championship
Students demonstrate probability distribution of non-random variables. Students collect data on the NBA Championships. They record the data and compute subsets and permutations.
Curated OER
A Statistical Study on the Letters of the Alphabet
Young scholars see that there are mathematical rules that can affect our use of the English language. Calculate the probability of picking any letter at random from a piece of English literature.
Curated OER
Make the Highest Total
Sixth graders predict the outcome of a simple probability experiment, test it and explain the result by using problem solving strategies to explore situations mathematically. They then play a few games informally where students play in...
Curated OER
Genetic Decision Making Model
Students examine case studies involving bioethics. They write a paragraph explaining the problem. Students construct a list of values that are involved in the conflict. They list probable solutions to the problem and consequences to...
Curated OER
Mendellian Genetics
Students describe the inheritance patterns other than simple dominance. They are taught how Mendel's principles apply to all organisms. Students review the use of Punnett Squares. They are taught the principles of probability and...
Curated OER
Life is Weird!
Students describe major features of cold seep communities, and list at least five organisms typical of these communities. They infer probable trophic relationships among organisms typical of cold-seep communities and the surrounding...
Curated OER
Spinning Nickels
Pupils make predictions to figure out the probability of a spun nickel landing on either heads or tails. They test their predictions through experimentation. They create a graph showing the frequency for the number of heads.
Curated OER
Pumpkin Carving for K-2 Students
Students engage in a variety of pumpkin activities. This lesson is especially rich for ESL students, who probably have little experience with this holiday and custom.
Curated OER
What Increases the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease?
Students analyze the risk factors for cardiovascular disease and classify them according to whether or not they are controllable. They discover how to reduce the probability of high blood pressure through diet and exercise.
Curated OER
Paleoecology of "Fossilized" Owl Pellets
Students examine fossilized owl pellets to determine how a species environmental preferences allow us to reconstruct probable past environments. Differences in anatomy are used to identify species in this lesson.
Curated OER
Getting Partial
This unit introduces a number of important concepts relating to fractions. The first of these is that fractions represent parts of regions and sets and so are useful in a large variety of situations. Whole numbers are not enough by...
