2024 March Mathness Madness NCAA Basketball Probability and Statistics Lesson
Every year I get my students excited about the NCAA Men's Basketball March Madness Tournament. I see articles written year after year from statisticians, sports journalist, celebrities, etc. about predicting the perfect bracket. Regardless that most have accepted it is nearly impossible, it has not deterred these enthusiast from finding an algorithm or a machine that can predict the outcomes.This packet guides students through 1) An explanation of what March Madness is all about2) A reading abou

Skittles Chance and Probability (Editable)
Chance and Probability activity using yummy Skittles!!!
Students are to predict the colours and quantities before they open the skittles bag. Students are to complete a chance experiment where they use a tally to collect their data. Students then transfer their data in fractions, decimals and percentages. Students are to create a bar graph using their data as well as answer chance and probability questions about the data. I used this with my grade 5/6 students and they loved it!

Candy Probability: Discovery of EXPERIMENTAL vs. THEORETICAL Probability
Middle Schoolers LOVE probability!
This is a GREAT lesson around Halloween when the kids are already hyped up on sugar and want to 'talk' to their classmates.
This activity allows the students to DISCOVER the differences between EXPERIMENTAL and THEORETICAL probability and connect it to everyday experiences. The probability lesson lends itself to fractions, decimals, percents, data collection, rational & irrational numbers, statistical graphs (box and whiskers, frequency tables...), measu

Tree Diagrams Notes and Practice Packet
I created this packet on tree diagrams for my probability unit so that students could work with one another to learn how to create a tree diagram on their own without my direct instruction. This gave me the freedom to help students that needed more individualized instruction and guidance. This packet was great to use before introducing the fundamental counting principle.

Students will complete a frequency table and histogram that corresponds to data collected through the use of rolling two dice (Statistics Lesson). To get the data for this frequency table, students will roll two dice and multiple the numbers rolled together. The product of these two rolls will be the data point. Students will write down each product, rolling their dice a total of 45 times. Students will then fill in the frequency table and graph on a histogram. We used an online dice. This helps
