Students investigate probability through a game. In this data lesson, students use dice and predictions to explore how probability works.

Students read and complete problems on how to solve discrete probability distributions. In this probability distributions lesson plan, students read math problem examples and solve them.

Fourth graders play a dice game as a group and record the number rolled. They report their findings and discuss terminology and ways of writing what the odds are of getting certain numbers.

In this math worksheet, students investigate the probability of different scenarios. Students read 24 brief situations on the cards and rate them with one of the 24 words such as: no chance, poor chance, likely, certainly, possibly.

Seventh graders determine the fairness of various games.  In this determining the fairness of various games lesson, 7th graders use spinners, dice, and rock,paper, scissors to play various chance games.  Students determine if...

In this apple blossom problem, students examine a given situation in a board game.  They determine the best way to win the game and the expected payoff.  This one-page worksheet contains 1 problem.

Students investigate probability and the chance of an even happening. In this algebra lesson plan, students incorporate their knowledge of probability to solve problems and relate it to the real world. They learn to make decisions based...

Students explore game theory.  In this secondary mathematics lesson, students plat the game of HOG using dice and explore the optimal strategies.  Students play the game three ways:  any number of dice, a fixed number of...

Students participate in playing many games to determine if they are fair or not. They create their own game that is fair to play with their classmates.

Middle schoolers consider probability problems with unexpected and surprising answers.

Students predict results, design a model, and carry out trials to determine probability based on their experimentation.

Students try some new exercises involving probability. These are, first of all, that the probability of getting a given total when two dice are rolled is equal to the number of possible ways of getting that total, divided by 36 (the...

Young scholars explore and complete a variety of activities demonstration probability. They make observations about the results of the activities. Students complete and discuss conditional probability. Also, young scholars draw...

Students examine the probability of the various findings in a game and determine the odds of winning. They differentiate between the facts of odds versus probability. Students use higher order thinking skills to explain how a problem is...

Students use probability as a game strategy.

With a set of 15 chips and a number line, learners predict what sums may occur with the rolling of two dice. When their sum comes up, they remove one of the chips from their number line with the objective of being the first to remove...

Though the website does not seem to have the mentioned video, a reding and lottery style games simulate the chances of finding intelligent life somewhere other than Earth. Without the video, this lesson is short, but it can be a useful...

Discover how to calculate the expected value of a random variable. In the seventh installment of a 21-part module, young mathematicians develop the formula for expected value. They connect this concept the dot product of vectors.

First graders engage in using base ten blocks and dice for a fun engaging math lesson. They use a worksheet imbedded in this lesson as the game board to help them play this math game.

Students participate in a variety of activities to understand statistics. They collect and interpret data. Also students distinguish the difference between a population and a sample. They make inferences and create arguments using data.

Eighth graders participate in a lesson that is concerned with reviewing basic math concepts using the four operations. The activity is composed of a math game that is played by them.

Students manipulate negative and positive numbers. In this integers lesson, students move through three activities exploring negative and positive whole numbers. A number line, cardboard function representation, and solving expressions...

Simulate a game where "N" players roll two dice, and the lucky player has an advantage for reaching the finish.

Many games use dice which are six-sided and fair (meaning each face on the die is equally likely to land face up). Many games also use the sum of two dice rolled at the same time to determine movement of game pieces. However, not all...
