The project is meant as a complete unit covering all the outcomes for Grade 7 and Grade 8 in the Manitoba curriculum. The goal is to develop a deeper understanding of probability. The activities are problem-based (such as the context of whether a game is fair or not) and set up as science experiments.
Probability experiments with more than two independent events are directed more for Grade 8 students.
For Grade 8 learning outcomes, have students identify the various strategies that students use to solve problems. Additional math problems can be found in the Grade 8 Mathematics Support Document for Teachers (BLM 8.SP.2.4 and BLM 8.SP.2.5: Probability Problem Practice)
