Great ice-breaker type activity for the beginning of the school year! Also a great way to introduce new vocabulary! (Maybe add extra prep time for the groups to look up the new vocab word.) Includes directions and pre-made word cards. Word doc is editable to change to vocab of your choice! (Or alter direction as you need.)

Probability project! Simple and compound experimental probability with actual words to determine the best letters to guess for Hangman. Students must have access to books of some kind (even Math text books should work).

Your students can practice theoretical and experimental probability about birthdays of their classmates, teachers, family, friends, and favorite celebrities! Editable in Word to change to your name and birthday (don't worry.. no years!). Fun bonus - look up birthday probabilities on YouTube. Your students (and you) might be surprised!!

Poster with Math Group Talk sentence starters, questions, hints, etc. A few little reminders at the bottom as well. (Could also be printed smaller and laminated to be used as table cards!) Word doc so feel free to edit as you'd like.
