Kids get stuck with the process of solving quadratic polynomials? This easy to follow flow chart shows the simple step-by-step nature of solving quadratic polynomials. 1) GCF Factoring 2) Traditional Factoring (x^2 + bx + c) 3) a > 1 Factoring (ax^2 + bx + c) 4) Difference of Two Squares 5) Using Square Roots to Solve 6) Using the Quadratic Formula

Have students who never can remember when to use a combination or a permutation? What about distinguishable permutations? Or just using the factorial option? This flow chart gives a good overview of when to use each method of combinatorics. Helpful for a college prep statistics student!

This project has students research probability distributions that are not typically discussed in an introductory statistics class (i.e. binomial, geometric, Poisson). Students are responsible for providing all the pertinent information on the distribution, including practical applications.

This review notes handout is my original work, synthesizing the information found in "Stats: Modeling the World, AP Edition" (5th edition, 2019). Students love having this handout to study, review the vocabulary, and recall the calculator instruction discussed throughout the unit. Chapters included are: Chapter 25 - Comparing Counts Chapter 26 - Inferences for Regression

Here is a project that allows for some cross-curricular connections. Students are tasked with selecting one of the pre-approved statisticians and presenting about their life's works. Many famous statisticians had their hands in more than just stats!

Want your students to collect and summarize their own data in a project that is meaningful to them? This project covers the first two chapters of "Elementary Statistics: Picturing the World," primarily regarding valid sampling methods, measures of center/spread, and a variety of data displays. Rubric is attached for easy grading.

A probability & statistics review packet using real-life data: number of wins per team in the NFL from 2002 to 2017. A fun way to review the following concepts, as well as dive deeper into "real-world" data. The following topics are addressed at length: -Relative and cumulative frequency - Binomial distribution probabilities - Comparing hypothetical and actual probabilities - Finding expected value (mean) of binomial distribution and actual data values - Computing z-scores - Comparing the bino

Kids get stuck with the process of using a confidence interval? This easy to follow flow chart shows the simple step-by-step nature of using confidence intervals. 1) Mean (small sample size) 2) Mean (large sample size)

When do I use the different kinds of hypothesis tests? This flowchart answers this question in an easy to follow manner. Included are t-tests, z-tests, and chi square tests.

Another flowchart (for Algebra II students) will include the quadratic formula.
