What educators are saying

A great set of questions. Really helpful for me since I am still developing a full curriculum for my students.
I was thrown in mid-year to an AP stats class with no previous stats experience and these resources have been a godsend in understanding what I need to teach and how I need to teach it for students to succeed on the AP exam. These units are so thorough and jam-packed with resources.

Description

AP Statistics Unit 4 – Probability, Random Variables, and Probability Distributions

Unit Bundle

This unit contains everything you need to teach "Probability, Random Variables, and Probability Distributions" in AP® Statistics or regular-level Statistics. Students will go through how to calculate and interpret basic probabilities, conditional probabilities, and probabilities for the union and interception of two events; represent and interpret the probabilities for discrete and continuous random variables; calculate parameters for linear combinations of random variables and describe the effects of linear transformations of parameters; and calculate and interpret probabilities for a binomial and geometric probability distribution.

This unit is part of my larger unit bundle: Goldie's AP® Statistics Full Curriculum

This product is a zip folder with the following items:

  • 8 complete sets of student-guided notes (annotated answer keys included)
  • Videos to accompany each set of notes - perfect for a flipped classroom or distance learning needs
  • 2 in-class review student handouts (with teacher slides included!)
  • 10 homework problem sets + complete test review (annotated answer keys included)
  • 3 assessments - 2 quizzes and a test (answer keys included)
  • 7 activities and projects
  • 2 additional lessons that teach combinations/permutations and the Poisson distribution
  • Suggested pacing and learning targets

All of the resources are 100% editable, so you are able to modify to fit your classroom needs. The zip folder includes all the Word documents for the resources, which you have permission to edit. The PDF version and answer keys are included for your convenience.

I teach this course without a textbook, so everything that is provided here, can be used without supplementation. The only thing I use in my class that is NOT included in this content is the secured AP® exam questions.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Describe events as subsets of a sample space (the set of outcomes) using characteristics (or categories) of the outcomes, or as unions, intersections, or complements of other events (“or,” “and,” “not”).
Understand that two events 𝘈 and 𝘉 are independent if the probability of 𝘈 and 𝘉 occurring together is the product of their probabilities, and use this characterization to determine if they are independent.
Understand the conditional probability of 𝘈 given 𝘉 as 𝘗(𝘈 and 𝘉)/𝘗(𝘉), and interpret independence of 𝘈 and 𝘉 as saying that the conditional probability of 𝘈 given 𝘉 is the same as the probability of 𝘈, and the conditional probability of 𝘉 given 𝘈 is the same as the probability of 𝘉.
Construct and interpret two-way frequency tables of data when two categories are associated with each object being classified. Use the two-way table as a sample space to decide if events are independent and to approximate conditional probabilities. For example, collect data from a random sample of students in your school on their favorite subject among math, science, and English. Estimate the probability that a randomly selected student from your school will favor science given that the student is in tenth grade. Do the same for other subjects and compare the results.
Recognize and explain the concepts of conditional probability and independence in everyday language and everyday situations. For example, compare the chance of having lung cancer if you are a smoker with the chance of being a smoker if you have lung cancer.
