Aug 6: Tossing Coins & Rolling Dice: Using Simulations to Estimate Probabilities

About This Webinar

Presented by S. Leigh Nataro (@mathteacher24)

According to the CCSS, 7th grade students should be able to design a simulation to answer the following question: If 40% of donors have type A blood, what is the probability that it will take at least 4 donors to find one with type A blood? Don’t rush ahead to use technology. Learn how to get students to use physical models first and then see how technology, like Fathom, can be used create the simulation. Three different examples will be discussed and short demonstration videos will be shared.

Global Math Department webinar platform hosts Aug 6: Tossing Coins & Rolling Dice: Using Simulations to Estimate Probabilities
The Global Math Department began as a group of teachers who knew each other through Twitter, math education blogs and Twitter Math Camp. Since 2012 The Global Math Department community has grown into a multi-faceted group of math educators who love to share their ideas related to teaching and learning mathematics. We recognize that as educators we are charged with promoting equity and access within mathematics instruction. In addition, we believe it is crucial that teachers be provided with quality resources and ideas that they can use immediately with their students. Lively and friendly conversations in our weekly webinars encourage all participants to share and continue to grow as educators.
