This fourth of twelve units in a series continues the investigation of functions through equations and inequalities. However, the modular nature of the lessons in the section make this an excellent resource for any curriculum...

Learners make predictions and draw conclusions from given information as they learn the meaning of probability in this vocabulary-rich, integrated activity that presents a variety of teaching strategies to motivate and reach...

Just because one integer is larger than another doesn't mean it will make sense right away. Go beyond note taking and show learners, through the use of algebra tiles and a Four-Pan Algebra Balance, how the numbers relate to one...

Probability, especially conditional probability, can be a slippery concept for young statisticians.  Statements that seem self-evident on the surface often require a daunting amount of calculations to explicate, or turn out to be...

The brother-sister pair Carlos and Clarita need your class's help in developing their new pet sitting business. Through a variety of scenarios and concerns presented to the siblings, the learners thoroughly explore systems of equations...

How sustainable are cell phones? Throughout the unit, learners explore the issues around cell phones concerning sustainability. Class members take a graphical look at the number of cell phones across the world using a box-and-whisker...

Logical thinking is at the forefront of this jam-packed lesson, with young mathematicians not only investigating geometric concepts but also how they "know what they know". Through each activity and worksheet, learners wrestle with...

Explore the power of mathematics through this two-week statistics unit. Pupils learn about several climate-related issues and complete surveys that communicate their perceptions. They graph both univariate and bivariate data and use...

This tutorial helps students understand the probability of two events occurring when the words AND & OR are used. There are examples and practice problems. The teacher resource pages include a demonstration and a computer simulation.

Determine the probability of two independent events. Assess learning with a quiz.

Use this site to learn the difference between theoretical and empirical probability. A practice page is included for each and two teacher resource pages contain classroom activities.

A module where students find and interpret probabilities; explore conditional probabilities, and use the conditional probability to determine if two events are independent; work with two-way tables as you analyze conditional...

A module for students to build on prior understanding of probability to include compound events; examine independent and dependent events, and describe events as subsets of a sample space,; determine whether events are independent or...

Use this site to learn what is means for two events to be mutually exclusive. Great examples show you how to calculate the probability of such events.
