"Needed a stats unit for Algebra 1 students whose last experience with stats was during COVID and they did not remember much at all. Lessons were easy to understand and students were appropriately engaged."

This was a great resource for my Stats/Probability classes!
Needed a stats unit for Algebra 1 students whose last experience with stats was during COVID and they did not remember much at all. Lessons were easy to understand and students were appropriately engaged.
I was only able to use the first three with my Workplace Math students. The other concepts were just too difficult.
My kids were able to use this as a wrap up for counting principle, permutations, and combinations.
Excellent Resource!
Thank you.
I got this resource for my students to work on during a class period that I would not be there, and the answer keys were perfect for helping them understand the material in the packet. When I came back, they had all completed the activities and had productive, meaningful questions about the things that they didn't understand!
Wonderful feedback! We're glad to hear of your success.
I appreciate the "When am I ever going to use this?" blurbs at the beginning of every activity. The collection is nicely organized into worksheets followed by the solutions, which are carefully and accurately worked out.
The worksheets are based on real-world examples that students can easily relate to, and saved me hours of work. The exercises are challenging enough to serve students studying sets, probability, and statistics in an entry-level quantitative reasoning course.
Thanks, Valerie, for your detailed feedback!
