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.
Introduces students to probability simulation, allowing them to explore computer modeling while learning about probability.
Students use probability to determine how likely it is for each tree in a small simulated forest to catch on fire.
This worksheet is for use with the Directable Fire activity (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/DirectableFire/).
