Looks at statistics and data analysis concepts from the practical questions that arise in everyday life.
Different methods for random fair choice between several numbers.
Investigate the Cartesian coordinate system through identifying the coordinates of a randomly generated point, or requesting that a particular point be plotted. General Coordinates Game is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.
Questions about games with more than two dice lead to discussion of trees as another kind of data structure.
Dice Table (Activity)
Experiment with the outcome distribution for a roll of two dice by simulating a dice throwing game. Parameters: Which player wins with which total rolled.
Life Lite (Activity)
Run the classic game of life, learning about probabilities, chaos and simulation. This activity allows the user to run a randomly generated world or test out various patterns. This is a simple activity which runs directly in the Interactivate window.
Fraction Four (Activity)
Students play a generalized version of connect four, gaining the chance to place a piece after simplifying fractions, converting fractions to decimals and percentages, and answering algebra questions involving fractions. Choose difficulty level, question types, and time. Fraction Four is one of the Interactivate assessment games.
Arithmetic Four (Activity)
Students play a generalized version of connect four, gaining the chance to place a piece on the board by answering arithmetic questions (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division). Parameters: time, difficulty level, types of questions. Arithmetic Four is one of the Interactivate assessment games.
This worksheet is for use with the Simple Coordinates Game activity (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/SimpleCoordinates/).
Spinner (Activity)
Create a game spinner with one to twelve sectors in order to look at experimental and theoretical probabilities. Parameters: Number of sectors, number of trials.
