This is an engaging mini unit that would work great for an in-depth look at representing percentsandpercent of a number. The resources are well-organized and differentiated so they are accessible to a wide range of students. Students learn:Representing percents (visually, decimals, fractions)Percent of a number in multiple ways (mental math, multiplying)Includes:Detailed lesson plans 2 number talks2 sets of comprehensive and visual scaffolded notes (with lesson video).2 Sets of task cards for
Students often struggle with mathematical concepts because terms, formulas, and functions can be overwhelming. Moreover, mathematical vocabulary confuses students because math terms are content specific. Defining what those terms mean and how they are used helps students master content.
The Probability & Statistics Vocabulary Survey can be used as a pre-assessment to evaluate students' prior knowledge. Data from this formative assessment will assist with grouping students and with planning ins
Before I gave my IB/Precalculus students a formative quiz on statistics, the binomial theorem, and trigonometry concepts, they requested a one-day review worksheet. This is the result of that request.
I use this activity within cooperative groups, and I circulate to make sure they are getting the purpose of the questions.
The file includes spiral review problems.
For this worksheet, I expect students to show their work on a separate sheet of paper.

Give students each a pack of fun size M&M's. They record how many of each color they have and then answer the questions about their numbers. Then they work in groups and determine the same questions with the new numbers. The second page works on converting fractions (of each color over total m&ms) to percentsand comparing them to the expected percents found in an M&M bag. I did this activity around Halloween time and students loved it.
Before giving my Precalculus/ IB students a quiz on statistics, the binomial theorem, and trigonometry, they asked for one day of review, so I wrote this worksheet for them.

Your purchase comes with the Interactive Notebook entry pictured above, and a classwork assignment, and a homework assignment to practice with. The notes include directions on how to calculate how many degrees each color should be, and how to calculate the percent of each color. The homework includes a paper protractor scholars can cut out to use at home.
Data Landmarks finding Maximum, Minimum, Range, Mode, Median, and Mean. Students are asked to provide definitions for each and are then given several scenarios with data that they need to analyze and find each landmark.
17 FRENCH word problems that can be used for Bellwork, problem of the day or on a quiz or test. Made to go along with the percentages, ratios and rates unit in Ontario.
**Peut-être utiliser comme des problèmes de jour/ bellwork, sur un quiz/test ou pour la révision.**
An easy way to introduce or review basic statistics. Students can use the foldable to quiz themselves or to find how to do one of the four without looking at a long page of notes. Examples are included inside the flaps.
If you are obliged to follow a mandated math curriculum at your school, then I suggest you read no further because this site is probably not suitable for you. However, if you are looking for something that is different, yet might spark an interest in either you or your students, then it might be worthwhile for you to continue reading. In 1994 I wrote an alternative curriculum for our Probability and Statistics students that employed Monte Carlo simulations. The students’ reactions were so posit
This is an activity for AP Statistics on performing a Chi Squared Test on M & M s Peanut Butter and Almond to see if the Mar's Company claim of the percent of colors of each in a bag.
This is a 15-item quiz on identifying the kind of variables (Independent and Dependent) and the level of measurement of each variable (nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio)
