Curated OER
Commutative and Associative Properties
In this commutative and associative property activity, students simplify 12 problems. Students then name the property illustrated in 4 problems.
Curated OER
ng Data: Probability, What's in the bag?
Young scholars use the language associated with probability to discuss events including those with equally likely outcome. They collect data from a simple experiment and record in a frequency table: estimate probabilities based on this...
Curated OER
Lucky Number
Students use data from simulations to make theoretical generalizations. They discuss possible relationships between several given events and gain understanding about their own mathematical intuition about likelihood.
Curated OER
Tiling the Plaza (Geometry)
Students make patterns with a variety of pattern blocks. Pupils experiment with making tile designs using only one shape by rotating that shape around a point. They enter a contest for creating the best tile design for the new plaza...
Curated OER
Car Activities
In this math worksheet, students find cars in Auto Trader. They find the difference between the prices of the cheapest and most expensive cars. Kids select a car they like and follow directions to buy on credit. Students complete a chart...
Curated OER
Percent Notation
In this algebra worksheet, students divide circles into equal portions as they explore percents and decimals. They convert between decimals and fractions using ratio and proportion. There are 8 questions.

Waiting Times
Probability prevails in this assignment as youngsters determine the probability of finding a blue pen in a cereal box when they can come in blue, green, yellow, or red. Learners set up a simulation to determine the outcome of compound...
Curated OER
Investigation--What Are My Chances?
Seventh graders investigate theoretical and experimental probability by conducting a series of experiments with multiple trials, comparing results, combining results and making conclusions. They express probabilities as fractions,...

Sitting across from Each Other
What is the probability that two randomly seated people will be across from each other at a square table? Check learners' understanding of theoretical probability and compound events with this short assessment. A great opportunity to...
Curated OER
Tetrahedral Dice
Put those thinking hats on and look at all the possible outcomes from rolling two different four-sided dice. The challenge in this problem is finding all the combinations when adding and subtracting the numbers from each die and creating...
Mathematics Assessment Project
Evaluating Statements about Probability
Learners first complete an assessment task where they assess statements on probability. They then sort cards containing probability statements as being either true or false.
