I Have a Dream Speech Analysis Discussion Guide
This speech analysis discussion guide highlights the rhetorical devices used by King with margin annotations and correlating color coded lines underlined in the text. I use this key to show the students, "How did the author say it?" (a common core step when doing close and critical reading). Using this activity helps the students understand the speech better and helps them with evaluating what King was saying.

Skittles Chance and Probability (Editable)
Chance and Probability activity using yummy Skittles!!!
Students are to predict the colours and quantities before they open the skittles bag. Students are to complete a chance experiment where they use a tally to collect their data. Students then transfer their data in fractions, decimals and percentages. Students are to create a bar graph using their data as well as answer chance and probability questions about the data. I used this with my grade 5/6 students and they loved it!

Probability of Compound Events (Guided Notes)
This lesson is meant to be used as guided notes for a whole class.
Students begin by learning what makes 2 events independent. After slowly working through a problem about rolling a die and choosing a card, they discover that they can multiply probabilities when working with these compound events. They then attempt problems involving picking marbles from a bag. Next, they learn about dependent events, and finally, mutually exclusive events.
The last 2 pages are a copy of the key.

Conditional Probability and Tree Diagrams Geometry Spring 2013 w/ Key (Editable)
Once I've covered basic probability and statistical measures, I like to have students work with conditional probability, which can often go hand-in-hand with tree diagrams. I created this worksheet for my Geometry students, and I find that it is challenging for them, but it can be broken down into "baby steps" and they learn to navigate their way around a tree diagram to calculate conditional probabilities.
I use this activity within cooperative groups, and I circulate to make sure they are ge
