Statistics Mode, Median, Mean, Range Worksheet for Math or Psychology
What's in the Hand: Activity makes learning mode, median, mean, and range fun. You will need two packs of playing cards in order to use 10 different variations. I use giant clothes pins to hold a total of 9 cards for each station. Each student gets a worksheet and is assigned to a group of 4-5 students. Students will complete the first rotation by figuring the mean, median, mode, and range, and then rotate to each other station in about 5 min intervals. At the end they will answer the questions

Marble Activity
Fun activity to have students investigate and calculate probability.Using a Plinko-style board, students predict where the marble will drop. Probabilities are then found by breaking the board down into smaller versions and seeing how it relates to Pascal's Triangle to be able to determine the probabilities.There are questions related to the marble drop and probability, some questions about Plinko and an extension using The Wall game show.SMART Notebook presentation, word document and pdf version

Halloween Party - Math Problem Solving
In this activity, students will be planning a Halloween party for their class. They will need to "purchase" supplies for their party using a budget that you set. I set a budget that forces the students to make budget choices, i.e., I don't give them enough to buy everything they want. Students will work in partners to plan their party, making decisions based on their budget constraints. Students are also asked to perform some data analysis on the party choices.

Game Theory and Drama for Kids
Most kids are convinced math is boring. Use drama and humour to get them doing (university level) strategic thinking and have fun at the same time. Game theory is a study of strategic decision making. In this game, kids act out the part of a judge, a bailiff, two criminals and a police officer or two. The goal is to spend as little time in jail as possible. What's the best way to do that? Play the game to find out.
