Distance Learning: Probability Digital Card Sort Activity (Common Core Aligned)

This drag-and-drop card sort activity created using Google™ Slides involves matching probability statements to equivalent simplified forms. There are 16 probability statements that simplify to one of four possible probabilities. This no-prep activity is perfect for distance learning, independent work, graded assessments, or practice. This resource includes an answer key and an option for differentiation. This activity is easy to share with your students via email, secure course website, or Google™ Classroom.

Objectives:

• Practice describing events as subsets of a sample space.

• Practice probability rules for independent events.

• Practice using conditional probability.

• Practice using probability rules to compute probabilities of compound events

• Practice using probability rules to simplify probability statements.

Common Core Standards:

HSS.CP.A.1: Describe events as subsets of a sample space (the set of outcomes)
HSS.CP.A.2: Understand that two events A and B are independent if the probability of A and B occurring together is the product of their probabilities
HSS.CP.A.3: Understand conditional probability of A given B as P(A and B)/P(B)
HSS.CP.A.5: Recognize and explain the concepts of conditional probability and independence in everyday language and situations.
HSS.CP.B.6: Find the conditional probability of A given B as the fraction of B’s outcomes that also belong to A.
HSS.CP.B.7: Apply the addition rule P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A and B) and interpret the answer.
HSS.CP.B.8: Apply the general multiplication rule P(A and B) = P(A)P(B|A) = P(B)P(A|B) and interpret the answer
