Grade Data Analysis and Probability

Flip a coin: heads, use the resource; tails, use the resource. The fourth of six installments of the Statistics & Probability unit looks at coin tosses and probability. The class conducts an experiment and sees that the outcomes of...

Middle and high schoolers determine the probability of dependent events. Students compute both compound and simple probability. This four-page worksheet contains six multi-step problems.

Let's find a way to determine how many there are. Given a diagram of trees on a plantation, pupils devise a way to estimate the number of old and new trees. Using their methods, learners create estimates for the number of the two types...

Climb out on a branch to find probabilities. Using tree diagrams, the resource shows how to find compound probabilities when the events are not uniform. The video works through two different scenarios, one where the probabilities remain...

Make a list and check it twice. Many times, it is beneficial to make a list of the possible outcomes when trying to determine a probability. The resource shows how to systematically make a list and then calculate the probability of...

It's time to branch out a little! Individuals explore the usefulness of a frequency tree when organizing data in a helpful video lesson. The instruction includes constructing a frequency table from a description and then using the tree...

And the beat goes on. The installment of the Math at the Core: Ratios series introduces time signatures in music. A musician shows the relationship between different types of musical beats. Working in pairs, classmates create beat...

Scholars determine the number of possible outcomes when a spinner is spun three times. They start with the case of one spin and build up to the case of three spins.

The instructor uses a diagram of a tree to work on to show how to do prime factorization. This is a short and to the point video.

Who said life was fair? An interactive uses an area diagram to represent the probabilities of flipping unfair coins. Pupils use the diagram to calculate the probabilities of outcomes of flipping the two coins. The scholars must decide...
