I have a set of giant playing cards. One of the kids asked me where I got them and I told them I got them at a really big store where everything is really big. She asked if they had Gummi bears at this store, because she would love to see that!

I had to break it to her that I actually bought them from an instructional supply company and there would be no really huge Gummi bear. The disappointment was real. For this hook, we played a probability game as a whole class.

This game pits the teacher against the whole class. Students first choose a suit, either heart, diamond, club, or spade. Then, you let them choose a card. If they get a card with the suit they guessed they get a point. You repeat this 10 times. My class got a good streak going and I was afraid they were going to win, which would kinda of ruin the point, but in the end I won 6 to 4.

They were so excited the whole time and they thought they were going to beat me. After the game I asked them to figure out why this game was unfair. I let them think about it and write it down on their whiteboard.

One by one I saw them getting it and writing their response. This activity was a great way to get students hooked into the lesson. Here are a few activities that kids love and that give them a lot of practice with simple probability:.

Kids love QR Codes. I love them because they give students the chance to be self-checking. In my class I make sure to give students a lot of individualized and specific feedback. In addition to that feedback they need to find their own mistakes and this type of activity is perfect for that. This QR code game was a great way for my students to practice with simple probability and get immediate feedback.

To play, students need to have some type of internet enabled device like an iPad or phone and install a QR Code reader on it.

This particular game has 16 questions and they have simple probability situations about rolling or choose skittles out of package. I let students play it like a game against each other. They enjoy the competition.

Have you ever done a Gallery Walk in your class before? There are many different ways have to have them set-up to get students moving around the room while practicing. This gallery walk was set-up in centers. Each center had a situation with simple probability, and several questions to answer about that situation. Groups of students worked together to figure them out.
