Stats Matching Game: Z-Score Normal Probability
Students are challenged to solve 8 questions about the probability of lengths of pregnancies by matching up cards.
The cards have 5 categories; the question, the z-score, the Normal curve with area, the calculator command for TI-84, and the probability notation for the answer. I recommend printing each category on a different color paper.
Questions are challenging but attainable, the activity is fun and easy to grade. There are four questions afterward to have students think further about t

Probaility in Games Project
I use this project to solidify and assess student's understand of probability. Students either select an existing board/card game or create their own. They then calculate several probabilities based on events in the game: Or, And, Given, display a chart, Expected Value, SD of the Expected Value, Independent/Non-Independent Events, and Disjoint/Non-Disjoint Events. These calculations go into a poster or slideshow. On presentation day, students teach and guide us through playing a couple rounds/tu

Higher or Lower Game
Students are given step by step directions and a table to work with a partner to play a game of "Higher or Lower" with chips to bet, then assess their results. It then leads them through finding the probability of a card being higher or lower before they bet and playing again. Teachers need 13 cards of the same suit and 50-60 poker chips per pair, though you can probably eliminate the chips or reduce the number of chips as you wish.

Central Tendency Bingo
Students can use the answers to each part and the words on the bottom of the sheet to fill in a blank BINGO card or construct their own BINGO card. I number all of the answers and words (27 parts/words), and I use a random number generator to randomly select problems to call. I will say, "The mean of #1," and the students have to find that answer on their BINGO cards. If they get BINGO, and they tell me a number that was not an answer to a question I've called, then they do not officially have

Students will complete a table of free throw attempts and successful free throws. I suggest giving a time limit to complete this rather than a certain number of free throws. Students then list from greatest to least the fraction of successful free throws to free throw attempts for their group. Students also look at NBA and WNBA data for free throws and answer: 2. Why do you think the women in the WNBA have a higher free throw average in general than the men in the NBA?
