What educators are saying

This was a great fit for my classroom. I paired the unit and activities bundle together and used the activities for review every 2 lessons, which was just right for us.
Yet again, another great resource from Maneuvering the Middle! My students enjoy these activities, and they are excellent at teaching the skills!

    Description

    This Probability Activity Bundle includes 7 classroom activities to determine simple probability, compare experimental and theoretical probability, make predictions, determine independent probability, and find dependent probability.

    These hands-on and engaging activities are all easy to prep! Students are able to practice and apply concepts with these probability activities, while collaborating and having fun! Math can be fun and interactive!

    Standards: CCSS (7.SP.5, 7.SP.6, 7.SP.7, 7.SP.8) and TEKS (7.6A, 7.6C, 7.6D, 7.6E, 7.6H, 7.6I)

    More details on what is included:

    Seven hands-on activities that can be utilized in pairs or groups of 3-4. All activities include any necessary recording sheets and answer keys.

    • Mazes: simple probability
    • Find It, Fix It: simple events
    • Stations: experimental and theoretical probability
    • Dominos: making predictions (long-run relative frequency)
    • He Said, She Said: independent probability
    • Cut and Paste: dependent probability
    • Task Cards: probability unit review

    How to use this resource:

    • Use as a whole group classroom activity
    • Use in a small group for additional remediation, tutoring, or enrichment
    • Use as an alternative homework or independent practice assignment
    • Incorporate within our Probability Unit to support the mastery of concepts and skills.

    Time to Complete:

    • Most activities can be utilized within one class period. Performance tasks summarize the entire unit and may need 2-3 class periods. However, feel free to review the activities and select specific problems to meet your students’ needs and time specifications. There are multiple problems to practice the same concepts, so you can adjust as needed.

    Standards

    to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
    Understand that the probability of a chance event is a number between 0 and 1 that expresses the likelihood of the event occurring. Larger numbers indicate greater likelihood. A probability near 0 indicates an unlikely event, a probability around 1/2 indicates an event that is neither unlikely nor likely, and a probability near 1 indicates a likely event.
    Approximate the probability of a chance event by collecting data on the chance process that produces it and observing its long-run relative frequency, and predict the approximate relative frequency given the probability. For example, when rolling a number cube 600 times, predict that a 3 or 6 would be rolled roughly 200 times, but probably not exactly 200 times.
    Develop a probability model and use it to find probabilities of events. Compare probabilities from a model to observed frequencies; if the agreement is not good, explain possible sources of the discrepancy.
    Develop a uniform probability model by assigning equal probability to all outcomes, and use the model to determine probabilities of events. For example, if a student is selected at random from a class, find the probability that Jane will be selected and the probability that a girl will be selected.
    Develop a probability model (which may not be uniform) by observing frequencies in data generated from a chance process. For example, find the approximate probability that a spinning penny will land heads up or that a tossed paper cup will land open-end down. Do the outcomes for the spinning penny appear to be equally likely based on the observed frequencies?
