This lesson plan helps learners develop tree diagrams and figure probability of events based on diagrams. Lots of resources are available to support teachers and students at this website.

Students use probability to determine how likely it is for each tree in a small simulated forest to catch on fire.

This lesson plan teaches young scholars about theoretical and experimental probability through a series of work stations.

An extensive collection of links on statistics and probability can be found here! Discussions ranging from the basics of stats through more complex data analysis. Topics are broken down into sections for teachers, students, WebQuest...

This lesson plan asks students to find all the possible outcomes from a compound event. Students will create a powerpoint, booklet, or foldable to demonstrate their understanding of the methods for solving compound events. It also...

This lesson focuses on randomness; it explains that what we often think of as random is only random because we do not have the tools to make better predictions. However, true randomness does exists -- at the very foundations of matter. A...

The purpose of this instructional activity is to begin the process of helping learners to learn the basic principles of probability. The students will also collect data, interpret data, and determine the fairness of the game rock, paper,...

Use our interactivity to simulate picking up a bow and some arrows and trying to hit the target a few times. Can you work out the best settings for the sight? This activity gives an opportunity to gather and collate data, and to test...

An explanation with examples of how to calculate probabilities of two dependent or independent events by multiplying their probabilities. Two practice problems are provided along with their explanations.

Introduction to Probability is a resource that provides assessment and teacher tutorials that focus on mathematic concepts such as probability, outcomes, events, probability distribution, laws, values and odd.

In this activity, students will learn what probability is; ways to express probability as a ratio, a decimal, and a percentage; and how to solve problems based on probability.

Practice creating probability models and understand what makes a valid probability model. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

In this exercise, students practice comparing probabilities. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get hints and try questions repeatedly.

A dice-table activity introduces students to probability and to converting probability to a simple fraction, a decimal, and a percentage.

Students run a simulation of how a fire will spread through a stand of trees, learning about probability and chaos.

Students also explore probability and patterns in place value by using two spinners and analyze and record the results.

Provides an introduction to probability. Includes examples, two videos, and links to additional resources, e.g., exercises to try. There are also problems and discussions of them in the Comments section.

This interactive learning activity allows students to explore experimental and theoretical probabilities using a spinner. Teacher resources are included.

Games are designed to help students understand and apply concepts of probability. determine fairness.

A coin is used to determine the birth of children and the students are to determine the probability of whether the child is boy/girl. Printable lesson.

This project shows how mathematical probability sometimes contradicts our intuition. Despite the fact that there are 365 days in a year, if you survey a random group of just 23 people there is a 50:50 chance that two of them will have...

Convert stated odds to a decimal value of probability and a percentage value of winning and losing. This calculator will convert "odds for winning" an event or "odds against winning" an event into percentage chances of both winning and...

Here's what you need to help you teach probability. Games, helpful hints, worksheets, PowerPoints, and presentations will help you make probability more "hands-on."

An engaging review that not only allows students to practice their skills but also maintains a slight edge of competitiveness!
