Help students build a strong foundation in probability with this clear, structured set of guided notes, examples, and practice problems. Designed for middle school math, this resource walks students through simple probability, complements, sample space, theoretical vs. experimental probability, and making predictions using proportions.

Perfect for direct instruction, intervention, or independent practice.

Topics Included:

• Simple probability & sample space
• Probability as a ratio
• Complement of an event
• Theoretical vs. experimental probability
• Making predictions using proportional reasoning

Also includes:

• Multiple “Try It Out” sections for immediate practice
