Are you looking for a complete lesson plan in an easy-to-read format for compound probability? These differentiated guided notes and practice worksheets offer visual representations for finding probabilities of overlapping and mutually exclusive events.
The included practice worksheets can be used for classwork, homework, or quiz review. Your students will analyze compound events with and without replacement. This 7th grade probability lesson plan also includes reflective questions that are perfect for whole or small group discussions of problem solving strategies.
You can use these guided notes for one full class period or split them up to practice the different types of problems on separate days.
This no-prep compound probability lesson plan includes:
✅ 2 pages of guided notes
✅ 2 pages of practice problems paired with the notes
✅ Differentiating between disjoint and overlapping events
✅ Finding probabilities of disjoint events
✅ Finding probabilities of overlapping events
✅ Full answer keys for the notes and practice problems
How I have used guided notes in my classroom:
⭐️ Whole class: You can complete the guided notes as a whole class lesson. This gives you the opportunity to have students work on example problems independently and check their work with you.
⭐️ Small groups: The students can work in pairs or small groups to complete the compound probability worksheet. They can also work with a partner to complete the guided example problems and check their work as a whole class.
⭐️ Independent: Students can use the practice worksheets as classwork, homework, or quiz review.
