This is for Math SP7.3 and/or SP8.2 Probability. This activity reinforces the concepts of probability of independent events.

The purpose of this lesson is to learn how to calculate the probability of multiple independent events.

Included is a YouTube video to support Grade 7 Blended Learning Math - Unit 7.6: Data Analysis - Tree Diagrams.

The purpose of this lesson is to learn how to calculate the probability of two independent events.

Included is a YouTube video to support Grade 8 Blended Learning Math - Unit 7.3: Data Analysis and Probability - Probability of Independent Events.

The purpose of this lesson is to apply what was learned about calculating the probability of independent events.

The following resource contains the assets (or resources) to accompany the Sask DLC Mathematics 8 course. Please note that this is not the content of the course, but the assets used to support and deliver it. The files are organized in a zip folder and a collection. 

Sixth grade math teacher Ana Posada shares a lesson on probability. Students do simulations of dependent and independent events using a goody bag of objects where they can document the differences between them.
