Middle School Math Stations or Centers: Statistics and Probability
Math, Percentages, Fractions, Graphing, Statistics, Grade 5, 6, 7, 8, Centers, Activities
Math stations are a great way to get students engaged as they move about the room and work collaboratively with their peers. But they are a lot of work to prepare! This ready-to-go set of 5 stations will supplement a unit about statistics and probability including probability using dice, spinners, and coins; calculating measures of central tendency- mean, median, and mode; and converting theoretical and experimental probability into percentages. Ways to Use: You can break your class into 5 groups and have them rotate one at a time through the centres, giving them 10-20 minutes at each one. Or, start students at certain centres and then allow them to move around at their own pace as long as no one centre gets too full. I find these are a great resource as you are finishing your unit and preparing for the unit test. Station 1: Students solve four word problems using probability and statistics. Students need to know how to calculate an average. (optional: set out white boards for students to use) Station 2: Students explore the probabilities involved when rolling two dice. (supplies needed: several 6-sided dice) Station 3: Students graph data in a dot plot and calculate measures of central tendency. Students need to know the difference between mean, median, and mode and how to make a dot plot. Station 4: Students play a probability game and compare theoretical and experimental probability (and fairness). (supplies needed: paper clips for spinners) Station 5: Students apply what they have learned to a real-life situation (flipping coins), and practice writing and drawing about their mathematical thinking. (optional: set out laptops or tablets for the online game extension) ***Answer Key Included*** Grades to Use With: These stations will work well in grades 5-8 or high school special education classrooms. Standards: CCSS5.MD.B.2 Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Use operations on fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information presented in line plots. For example, given different measurements of liquid in identical beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all the beakers were redistributed equally. CCSS6.SP.A.2 Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a distribution which can be described by its center, spread, and overall shape. CCSS6.SP.B.4 Display numerical data in plots on a number line, including dot plots, histograms, and box plots. CCSS6.SP.B.5c Giving quantitative measures of center (median and/or mean) and variability (interquartile range and/or mean absolute deviation), as well as describing any overall pattern and any striking deviations from the overall pattern with reference to the context in which the data were gathered. CCSS7.SP.A.1 Understand that statistics can be used to gain information about a population by examining a sample of the population; generalizations about a population from a sample are valid only if the sample is representative of that population. Understand that random sampling tends to produce representative samples and support valid inferences. CCSS7.SP.C.5 Understand that the probability of a chance event is a number between 0 and 1 that expresses the likelihood of the event occurring. Larger numbers indicate greater likelihood. A probability near 0 indicates an unlikely event, a probability around 1/2 indicates an event that is neither unlikely nor likely, and a probability near 1 indicates a likely event. CCSS7.SP.C.6 Approximate the probability of a chance event by collecting data on the chance process that produces it and observing its long-run relative frequency, and predict the approximate relative frequency given the probability. For example, when rolling a number cube 600 times, predict that a 3 or 6 would be rolled roughly 200 times, but probably not exactly 200 times.

Looking for an interactive behavior management tool? Coping strategies are our tools to combat all the uncomfortable feelings we go through in life, and we have the chance to teach these coping strategies in the classroom! Turtles have often been described as the most resilient animal given all that they face from the moment they are born. It’s no wonder we always see turtles in curriculums and story books having to do with SEL (Tucker the Turtle, Twiggle the Turtle) Turtles use their shell to protect themselves, both physically and emotionally. I created this Turtle craft to help students choose coping skills that will help them feel better when upset. There are 8 different strategies to pick from, and the numbers can also be used as a breathing exercise! Have your children point to each number for 8 slow and deep breaths before picking a number to lift to reveal their coping skills! The craft is easy to put together, print, cut and glue. You can also laminate and use a spinner to make it even more interactive! The download also includes a poster to hang in a Calm Corner or a Bulletin Board and serves as a reminder of the coping skills available. Included Coping Strategies: - Blow Bubbles - Dance - Yoga - Color - Play with Blocks - Drink Water - Count to 10 - Take a Break - Fidget Toy - Ask for Help - Play Doh Be sure to check out my store for resources focused on social emotional learning and mindfulness for little ones!

Free Digital Gratitude Activity for Elementary Students
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Life Skills, Grade 3, 4, 5, 6, Activities
Free Digital Gratitude Activity for Elementary Students Engaging students meaningfully, especially on abstract concepts like gratitude, can present a challenge for teachers. The Free Digital Gratitude Activity is specifically designed to overcome this hurdle by fostering gratitude appreciation among elementary students through an interactive and fun exercise. Cleverly crafted to promote creative thinking, this digital activity encourages students to identify something they appreciate corresponding to each letter of the alphabet. Unlike typical activities where answers can be simplistic or repetitive, this method forces them to think innovatively and diversely about things around them which they are grateful for. The procedure is quite simple; after brainstorming their thankful item for every alphabet letter, they find a picture representing it and paste it on their slide. As an integral part of the learning process, they will then explain why each item was chosen in class discussions or presentations. For instance, 'X' could trigger expressions of appreciation for extra video game time. Versatile in application - From individual assignments at home to small groups in classrooms or even as an engaging whole group activity – the flexibility maximizes its utility across various teaching methods and settings. Efficacy beyond physical classrooms - Tteachers conducting online sessions have found it equally effective. Suitability - Ideally suited for Grades 3-6 under Special Resources aligning with subjects focusing on Social Emotional Learning and Life Skills development among children within these age groups. Minimalist tool requirement - A Google slides-based exercise that doesn’t overwhelm learners with technical complexity while retaining efficacy across platforms or classroom environments. Whether you’re planning Thanksgiving Week activities that reinforce positive values or simply need a unique way for motivating less enthusiastic learners during morning meetings – this free digital gratitude activity serves multiple needs seamlessly while maintaining a consistent focus on the key learning objective: instilling genuine gratitude. Packed into a convenient PDF format ensuring easy download processes across all devices - teachers finally have access to an invaluable resource combining a highly engaging educational activity promoting gratitude appreciation at zero cost.
