Probability
Here is a fine presentation on probability, and the language of probability. Pupils are introduced to the words, impossible, unlikely, likely, and certain. Then, they consider a variety of events, and assign one of the words to describe...
Curated OER
Random Probability
In this statistics and probability activity, young statisticians solve and complete 13 different problems related to probability, percentages, and normal distributions. They consider data models, assumptions about the models, and find...

Probability Introduction
Introduce learners to probability through a vocabulary preview that covers words like impossible, likely, unlikely, and certain. After reviewing what probability is learners assess four sentences in relation to how likely they are to...

Probability: What's Most Likely?
Work with graphs, tally marks, and probability. Fifth graders read tables with different sets of data, including tally marks and a bar graph, to answer five questions. Use this worksheet as part of a probability lesson, or as a homework...

Probability and the U.S. Map
Learners solve and complete 20 different problems that include using a U.S. map and data table. First, they calculate the probability that they will select a state that begins with each letter of the alphabet. Then, everyone completes...
