About This Product
Compound Probability TASK: Guess the Test!
This quality teaching resource targets 7th-grade Mathematics educators with specific emphasis on Statistics. The primary focus is on compound probability tasks, predominantly regarding independent events. Students are offered both entertaining and educational challenges in the guise of a multiple-choice test.
Main Features
- Promotes diligent problem-solving: Students tackle complex compound probability issues, with calculator use strongly advised.
- Versatile task format: Presents three key tasks based around individual compound likelihood scenarios. Here, students learn to multiply probabilities.
- In-depth academic engagement: Includes challenge questions and an exploratory challenge segment to foster a deeper understanding and pull learners in.
- A plethora of applications: Perfect for independent study or group activities, supplemented by optional Guess the Test! quizzes to mix things up.
Add-on Features: Guess the Test Dot Plots & Answer Key
The 'Guess the Test Dot Plots' allows for interactive classroom discussions post-quizzes. It works by displaying number lines meant for dot plots which helps in assessing student's performance as they mark their scores corresponding to each plot followed by group discussion comparing various quiz results . An answer key is included along side these features making this product even more valuable lending precise guidelines forming correct solutions.
Educational Standards Compliance & Licensing Terms

What's Included
This resource contains the following items:
1) Compound Probability TASK: Guess on the Test!
· Students work at solving compound probability problems using a multiple-choice quiz scenario
· CALCULATOR USE IS RECOMMENDED
---> Rigor: The three main tasks are focused around independent compound probability events (where students must only multiply the probabilities). There are challenge questions and a challenge section where students explore adding probabilities to find any combination of outcomes.
2) Guess on the Test! QUIZZES (Optional)
· Students may take the quizzes below as a demonstration of the different scores they are likely to achieve if they can eliminate 1 or 2 answer choices. The quizzes can be given on paper or using Google Forms by following the links in the PDF download.
o Guess the Test! #1– (Students guess blindly on 5 quiz questions, 4 answer choices each)
o Guess the Test #2 – (Students guess blindly on 5 quiz questions, 1 answer choice eliminated)
o Guess the Test #3 – (Students guess blindly on 5 quiz questions, 2 answer choices eliminated)
· Guess the Test Dot Plots (Optional) – After students receive their quiz scores, display the number lines for the dot plots and have students go to the board and mark a dot or X to represent their scores on each of the three plots. Then have a group discussion comparing the results of each quiz.
3) Answer Key to All Parts
