Candy Probability: Discovery of EXPERIMENTAL vs. THEORETICAL Probability
Middle Schoolers LOVE probability!
This is a GREAT lesson around Halloween when the kids are already hyped up on sugar and want to 'talk' to their classmates.
This activity allows the students to DISCOVER the differences between EXPERIMENTAL and THEORETICAL probability and connect it to everyday experiences. The probability lesson lends itself to fractions, decimals, percents, data collection, rational & irrational numbers, statistical graphs (box and whiskers, frequency tables...), measu

Game On! Hypothesis Testing: 1-Sample t-Test for Means Lab
This lab asks students to apply concepts of 1-sample t-test of means in a real world context. They are able to play/simulate games and determine if their theoretical calculation is accurate.
This lab integrates hypothesis testing based on two carnival games. Spiraling expected value and random variable topics from previous chapters will help themto prepare them with a "big picture" when it comes to the AP Statistics Exam.

Scatterplots Linear Regression Line of Best Fit Forearms & Height (Editable)
After teaching my students about scatterplots, correlation, and the line of best fit, I take a day for them to do a hands-on lab, in which they measure their height (in inches) and their forearm length (from the tip of their elbow, to the bony point on their wrist), and we plot the class data, write the equation of the line of best fit, and then use the equation generated both forwards and backwards. They will need 45 minutes to an hour to do this in class.

Chi Square Lab for AP Biology
I use this activity to introduce chi square to my students in AP Biology.It scaffolds their learning so that we walk through the definitions and basic concepts, then dive right into practice problems. We used AP biology examples, M&M color distributions, and practice genetics problems to understand how to calculate and use the chi square value.The students are always super engaged throughout the lesson and generate their own data for may of the components of the lab.By the end of the lesson,

IB Biology: Internal Assessment Statistical Analysis Decision Tree
This product is a PowerPoint slide that can be modified to meet your needs and saved as a PDF to digitally provide to students. I had noticed that my students struggled with determining which statistical analysis was most appropriate for their Internal Assessment, so I created a decision tree for them. By being able to answer the questions on the decision tree, they will be able to appropriately analyze their data and reach their conclusion.

Gapminder Global and Local Energy Lab Activity
In this lab students will use an internet based charting software to research topics and implications of energy on local and global scales. Students will examine the energy cost and sources of their own state (prefilled for Illinois) and analyze changes in the energy use of United States and other countries selected by student. Students will demonstrate knowledge by responding to questions and writing prompts requiring analysis, justification and evaluation.

This activity looks at a realistic data set and walks the student through constructing a frequency table and histogram using Microsoft Excel. It should be noted that Excel is not the best software package for creating histograms, but because it one of, it not the most widely used software package for data storage and presentation in business, it is important to know how to create professional-looking and statistically accurate graphics using this tool.

Students will be able to find a correlation between the average monthly temperature of two cities in the world. Once students collect their data, they will create a scatter plot to further analyze the correlation, create a line of best fit, and answer a set of questions. I usually allow for two class periods so the kids aren't rushed. It takes my kids around an hour and a half to complete the lab. This is a Word Document so you can edit as you please!!
