In this probability worksheet, students solve and complete 2 different problems related to rolling two dice. First, they select one number from 2 to 12. Then, students roll the dice over and over again until one person's number comes up....

Ninth graders collect data on basketball player's heights and determine the mean, median, and mode for the data.

Let the task burst your mind. Scholars estimate the frequency that both Starbursts in a pack are yellow out of 287 packs. They apply probability concepts to complete the sweet task.

In this statistics worksheet, students answer questions about the probability of an even occurring using dices. They keep tract of their data using a table and analyze the data to make predictions. There are 12 questions with no...

In this statistics worksheet, students solve a word problem about golf. They keep a score card, analyze their data on the score card and draw conclusions based on their data. There are 2 questions.

Wow! Here is a 14-page package of activities to use when your math class is studying probability. There are a myriad of pertinent experiments for learners to try, such as rolling a self-constructed multi-faced three-dimensional...

Fifth graders investigate the concept of median, mode, and range using a simple model for display purposes. They examine different shaped crackers out of a box and identify the ones that occur the most. Then the calculations for the...

Students practice making and interpreting pie graphs so they are better able to decide if a pie chart is the appropriate form of display. Students examine included overheads of different pie charts, and directions on how to make pie...

Fifth graders study probability of events. They predict outcomes, and participate in hands-on experiments to find the probability of specified events. Afterward, 5th graders write probability of events in fractions and decimals.

Second graders discover what magnets can do. In this magnet lesson students make predictions about magnets. They experiment with the magnets and record their data on a chart.

Students discuss which animal makes a better pet.  In this statistics lesson, students examine the factors that cause people to choose one animal over the other (cat or dog).  Students discuss their own opinions, and then view...

Students make predictions based on survey results. They calcuate sample proportions. Students estimate the number of voters in their district preferring the democratic candidate using their sample results. They review sample proportions...

An engaging game called, "Quarter, Nickel, and Dime" is presented in this math instructional activity. Players are given an envelope with slips of paper that represent the three coins. In pairs, they play the game 18 times, and the whole...

Fourth graders decorate and use popsicle sticks as manipulatives to assist with their learning of probability. They utilize a worksheet imbedded in this plan to organize the results of their experiment. They make a stem and leaf plot...

Second graders create a bar graph to pictorically represent the data collected from a survey of students. They use Excel to electronically create the graphs and data tallies. They then interpret their data using sentences to explain.

Students research plant growth. In this plant growth lesson, students explore the needs of plants. Students compare and contrast grass and broadleaf plants and grow a miniature lawn in a cup of soil. Resources are provided.

Students problem solve to find the probability of each tree in a small forest to catch fire. In this probability lesson plan, students use the computer to complete this application.

Students calculate the probability of a desired outcome based upon a statistically significant number of discrete events (i.e. endgame free-throw attempts). They participate in an online simulation of basketball free throws.

Students discuss the possible traffic signals that may be observed on the way to a field trip. They record data on the trip, and analyze the probability of the results occurring again.

Students investigate the concept of using box and whisker plots. They demonstrate how to use them to compute median, mode, and range. Students compare and contrast the complete and systematic processes use to solve problems. This is done...

Pupils 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 activity, they conduct an experiment to determine theoretical and experimental...

Second graders make sampling predictions, predict outcomes and explore probability through experimentation.

Students explore the concept of probability. In this probability lesson, students perform various probability experiments including flipping a coin, picking m&m's out of a bag, and the birthday problem.

In this probability worksheet, students examine given business situations and determine the probability of an event. They create tree diagrams and contingency tables. This nine-page worksheet contains 7 multi-step problems.
