Given an event to simulate, the student will use theoretical probabilities and experimental results to make predictions and decisions.

Sixth graders will be able to see the relationship between theoretical probability and experimental probability by computing both at the same time.

Given a problem situation, students will use experimental data or theoretical probability to make predictions and determine solutions to situations involving independent events.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart takes the student through activities regarding theoretical and experimental probability and expressing the probability in mathematical terms.

In this activity, students will simulate a popular game, find experimental probabilities, and then compare those probabilities to the corresponding theoretical probabilities.

In this exercise, students practice finding simple probability. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get hints and try questions repeatedly.

In this exercise, students practice finding the probabilities of compound events. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get hints and try questions repeatedly.

Drop balls through a triangular grid of pegs and see them accumulate in containers. Switch to a histogram view and compare the distribution of balls to an ideal binomial distribution. Adjust the binomial probability and develop your...

An interactive game for learning theoretical vs experimental probability.

A tree diagram is a helpful tool for determining theoretical or mathematical probabilities. Toss a coin and watch as branches represent a toss of either head or tails.

The topic summary outlines probability. Some topics reviewed are sample space, independent events, conditional probability, and theoretical probability. The resource consists of definitions, notes, and examples.

Practice using sample space diagrams to find probabilities. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Seventh graders begin learning about compound events by considering independent events. They will consider everyday objects with known probabilities. Students will represent sample spaces using lists, tables, and tree diagrams in order...
