Description
Probability activities designed with flexibility in mind.
Kit includes task cards, probability cards to sort and order, number lines, two different worksheets with answer key. Mix and match these elements to suit your class.
Teach the probability skills your students need: comparing, bench-marking, calculating ratios, decimals and/or percents with simple probability cards. All probabilities are based on single event theoretical probability using common scenarios (spinners, coin-flips, cards, dice)
3 different activity designs included:
- Estimate, Calculate and Order Probability as Percent
- Reason about Multiple Representations of Probability with Student Choice
- Probability as Decimals, Ratios and Percents with Collaboration and Algebraic Thinking
Or modify and adapt these flexible materials:
Students create a probability number line, adding benchmarks to match the descriptors.
Or not: Use the included lines or skip it all together.
Students reason about and arrange probability cards on the number line.
Or not: Skip straight to different task cards
Students calculate probability as a ratio
Or a percent
Or a decimal
Or all three.
Students draw or explain their thinking.
Or create their own examples.
Record answers in the included chart.
Or give students the partially completed chart to scaffold their work.
Or assign the partial chart for homework/review.
Or skip it. Record answers in notebooks, on whiteboards or scrap paper.
CCSS: 7.SP.C.7a 7.SP.C.5 Math Practice: 4
Includes
9 Tasks Cards - Mix and match sorting, creating, critical thinking and calculating tasks.
9 Probability Cards - Classic probability scenarios -- raffles, dice, cards, flipping coins, spinners. Cards are created in Google Slides, document includes access link and printing instructions
4 Number lines - Descriptors, ratios, percents, decimals
3 Sample activity descriptions with materials and procedures
2 Worksheets
Answer Key (For cards/worksheet)
Designed with adult learners (ABE/GED/HiSET) in mind.
