Description |
| Let's Flip Out: | Students will roll a number cube and flip a coin to find the relative frequency for a given simulation This lesson is designed to follow a lesson on theoretical probability. Students should already know how to determine the theoretical probability for a given situation. |
| Independent Compound Probability: | During this lesson, students will use Punnett Squares to determine the probability of an offspring's characteristics. |
| Understanding Probability of Compound Events: | This lesson uses guided teaching, small group activities, and student creations all-in-one! Students will be able to solve and create compound event word problems. They will also be able to identify what type of event is being used in a variety of word problems. |
| Permutations and Combinations: | Students will explore the differences between permutations and combinations. This should follow a lesson on simple probability. This is a great introduction to compound probability and a fun, hands-on activity that allows students to explore the differences between permutations and combinations. This activity leads to students identifying situations involving combinations and permutations in a real-world context. |
| Casino Royale: | Students examine games of chance to determine the difference between dependent and independent conditional probability. |
| How to Hit it Big in the Lottery - Probability of Compound Events: | Students will explore a wide variety of interesting situations involving probability of compound events. Students will learn about independent and dependent events and their related probabilities.
Lesson includes:
- Bell-work that reviews prerequisite knowledge
- Directions for a great In-Your-Seat Game that serves as an interest builder/introduction
- Vocabulary
- Built-in Kagan Engagement ideas
- An actual lottery activity for real-life application
|
| Tree Diagrams and Probability: | This lesson is designed to develop students' ability to create tree diagrams and figure probabilities of events based on those diagrams. This lesson provides links to discussions and activities related to tree diagrams as well as suggested ways to work them into the lesson. Finally, the lesson provides links to follow-up lessons designed for use in succession with the current one. |
| Evaluating Statements About Probability: | This lesson unit addresses common misconceptions relating to the probability of simple and compound events. The lesson will help you assess how well students understand concepts of equally likely events, randomness and sample sizes. |
| Probability: | This lesson is designed to develop students' understanding of probability in real life situations. Students will also be introduced to running experiments, experimental probability, and theoretical probability. This lesson provides links to discussions and activities related to probability as well as suggested ways to integrate them into the lesson. Finally, the lesson provides links to follow-up lessons designed for use in succession with the current one. |
