Utilizes and reinforces concepts of probability, mean, line plots, experimental data, and chaos in analyzing a forest fire simulation.
This worksheet is for use with the Better Fire activity (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/ABetterFire/).

This worksheet is for use with the A Better Fire! activity (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/ABetterFire/).
Advanced Fire (Activity)
Run a simulation of how a fire spreads through a stand of trees, learning about probability and chaos. Track the results of multiple burns and use the data to draw conclusions.
Advanced Fire (Lesson)
Lesson plan to help students understand independent and dependent variables through a fire probability simulation.
Introduces students to probability simulation, allowing them to explore computer modeling while learning about probability.
