Students investigate recycling. In this environmental lesson, students design a recycling program for their school. Students collect data about how much recyclable materials they use in one week. Students also survey classmates about how...

In this early American history activity, students respond to 9 essay and short answer questions about the life and accomplishments of Benjamin Franklin.

First graders explore the existence of patterns in everyday items. In this science and math integrated lesson, 1st graders match leaves with a name word card and organize them into four patterns. This lesson includes a reading of And the...

In this math worksheet, students record the results of a survey taken from family members about relationships and activities.

Students analyze and chart what risks are involved on school field trips. Students devise a study trip to take and dissect at the end of their findings. Students scale the conditions of what a risk is and we can manage them in the future.

Fourth graders use critical thinking, evaluation, and geography skills to find alternative locations that Brigham Young could have taken the Mormons to settle. They present their findings to Brigham Young and the class with a short...

Third graders study concepts related to health promotion and disease prevention.

Students practice calculating allele and genotype frequencies in the framework of a simple simulation using hard candy, calculators, and a worksheet. This instructional activity includes a three-page worksheet and an assessment question...

Students expore civil liberties. They identify and define legal rights. Students consider the impact of applying rights in criminal matters. They identify Canadians' political rights and suggest why they are essential to a democracy....

Students problem solve logic problems. They complete a worksheet using dice as a manipulative. They decide on a problem solving strategy, solve the problem, and write up the solution.

In groups, pupils create their own scientific impact experiments using ordinary materials, and observe and measure results with a variety of impacting bodies and velocities.

Students learn about the concept of possible outcomes by exploring a tutorial. They can then test their knowledge by taking a ten question assessment that increases in difficulty as they correctly answer questions.

Students use tree diagrams to find possible outcomes and make predictions for probability story problems.

Students explore how tree diagrams can display possible outcomes in probability problems through this interactive web lesson.

Students find possible outcomes using tree diagrams in this interactive web lesson.

This section explores how to determine the sample space, or possible outcomes, for an event such as rolling dice. It also investigates how to determine the probability of different outcomes occurring for an activity such as flipping a...

Students learn about the concept of outcomes by exploring a tutorial. They can then test their knowledge by taking a ten question assessment that increases in difficulty as they correctly answer questions.

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...

This lesson plan introduces learners to experimental and theoretical probability using spinners and trials with pennies. Students also research careers that involve probability, and create a video presentation. It provides an assessment...

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

This site from Bowling Green State University provides an introduction to probability. It discusses topics and activities such as interpreting odds, listing all possible outcomes (the sample space), basic probability rules, equally...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] List and calculate all possible outcomes by using tree diagrams.

This is an introduction to the study of probability. It tells the story of two of the greatest mathematicians, Blaise Pascal and Pierre de Fermat, who used coin tosses of heads or tails to determine who paid the bill. It led to the...

A tree diagram is a helpful tool for determining theoretical or mathematical probabilities. Toss a coin and watch as branches represent a toss of either head or tails.
