Considers probability problems with unexpected and surprising answers.
This lesson teaches students about theoretical and experimental probability through a series of work stations.
This worksheet is for use with the Playing with Probability lesson plan (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/lessons/PlayWithProbability/).
This lesson will challenge students to think creatively by having them design and build water balloon catchers from random scrap materials, while requiring them to take into consideration a multitude of variables. Students will then construct at least two bar graphs to be used in a commercial advocating the purchase of their group's catcher.
