Experimental Probability Activity (dice lab)
In this activity students work with a partner to roll a pair of dice (many times) and record the sum of the dice in a data collection sheet. Once the data has been collected the students are walked through the process of calculating the experimental probability for each sum and then the theoretical probability for each sum and are asked questions about the differences they find between the values. Students also make a bar graph using the percentages for theoretical probability and can visually s

Theoretical vs Experimental Probability Lab (includes making predictions)
This is a fun, student-centered activity in which students working with a partner will conduct an experimental lab tossing 2 coins. After completing the lab, they will draw conclusions based upon the results of the activity concerning the difference between theoretical and experimental probability. Then they use experimental probability to make predictions. I have included the lab activity, a follow-up worksheet which can be used to engage student discussion after the lab, and a worksheet for

Spring into Statistics Data Displays and Measures of Center Lab
This is a hands-on lab that teaches about Statistical Questions, Data Displays (dot/line plot, histograms, box plots) and Measures of Center (mean, median, mode, and range). The lab includes notes pages, examples with answer keys, and a final project in which the student can survey classmates and create a "flower" by using their data to find mean, median, mode, range. They will also create a box plot, histogram and dot plot.
Sickle Cell Data Analysis: Hardy-Weinberg and Chi-Square
Want a great way to convert the "traditional" Hardy-Weinberg lab into a data problem set? Here it is! This is ideal for very small classes, where sample size could be an issue, busy classes, where you may need this for additional at-home practice, or very large classes, where the swapping of H-W cards could get too messy.Included is the full data problem set and teacher pages with the answer key.This data problem set covers:-genotypes and phenotypes-the Hardy-Weinberg equation, with application

Rock, Paper, Scissors says Stat: A Chi-Square Lab
Students will utilize a Rock, Paper, Scissors website provided by the New York Times to determine whether the computer throwing Rock, Paper, Scissors is truly random. Students are asked to play the game 30 times in both modes. In addition, students are asked to call back ideas of simulation and probability to review previous learned concepts in preparation for the AP Exam to eliminate the confounding variables associated with human behavior.Please find an updated link to the simulator here: ht

Psychology Lab Image Memory and Sex Differences AP Psychology Statistics
In this set of 13 labs the students do a variety of image memory tasks. They then collaborate and share data, then perform a T test on the data to find out if the differences between the scores of men and women are statistically significant. The students also test for correlations between a variety of scores. I suppose it is a sort of an expansion on my face memory lab.

Real-Life Statistics Project
Students must think of a survey question that can be answered numerically. Then, they must go out into their community or school and ask at least 15 people their question. After collecting their data, they must find the minimum, maximum, range, mean, median, and mode. Also, they must graph their results, and answer a few reflection questions about their data.
I have my kids put all of this information on a poster or make a powerpoint presentation to show the class. I find this activity re

In these two labs the students analyze a dream set for characters, emotions and animals in dreams respectively. Research says that the characters in women’s dreams are about 50/50, men and women, but in men’s dreams there are more male characters than female characters. One of the labs focuses on this phenomenon. We endeavor to see if this is true in our dream set. The second lab focuses on whether whether or not men or women have more negative or positive dreams. 11/8/22 Animals in dreams is no
