Take the old baking soda and vinegar volcano to the next level by using it to study repeated lava flows over time, examine geologic features on Earth and Mars, and speculate about some of the formations on Mars. 

The probability is high learning will occur! A well-designed unit introduces learners to the concepts of independent, dependent, and mutually exclusive events. Using Venn diagrams, the lessons ask learners to analyze many different...

The game should be fair at all costs. The mini-assessment revolves around the ability to use probabilities to determine whether a game is fair. Individuals determine compound events to calculate simple probabilities and make...

Students study plots and use a Live Access Server to generate plots.  For this temperature lesson students examine the process of incoming and outgoing radiation. 

Students collect data and analyze it. In this statistics lesson, students make predictions using different outcomes of trials.

In this probability worksheet, students find the probability of given problems. They compute both independent and dependent events. This two-page worksheet contains approximately 35 problems.

Take a chance on an informative resource. Scholars conduct probability experiments involving coins and number cubes to generate data. Compiling class data helps connect experimental probability to theoretical probability.

Burgers and salads and sodas, oh my! Scholars use a menu to investigate the Fundamental Counting Principle. They create tree diagrams to illustrate the number of possible choices for each given scenario.

Stockings make your legs warmer and math more enjoyable. A drag-and-drop interactive has pupils take stockings out of drawers to calculate probabilities. This includes dependent events where the probabilities depend on previous stocking...

Here is a turnkey lesson that walks young statisticians through the development and uses of conditional probability. From dice games to surveys, Venn diagrams to frequency tables, the class learns how a given can effect the overall...

Learn two dances that your class can perform at a Cinco De Mayo school celebration. This is really an outline and would be better used if there were plans for how to teach the dance steps. The idea is good to teach the cultural...
