The First Thanksgiving Simulation: Journey on the Mayflower
This is a week long simulation where your kids will become a part of history! Students will read about the process of the pilgrims coming to the New World and then receive their experience cards, which will let them be a part of the famous journey.
They take the knowledge they gain from the reading and the information on the experience card to write a journal entry from a pilgrim's perspective. Kids will be learning and engaged in these reading and writing activities!

Statistics Mode, Median, Mean, Range Worksheet for Math or Psychology
What's in the Hand: Activity makes learning mode, median, mean, and range fun. You will need two packs of playing cards in order to use 10 different variations. I use giant clothes pins to hold a total of 9 cards for each station. Each student gets a worksheet and is assigned to a group of 4-5 students. Students will complete the first rotation by figuring the mean, median, mode, and range, and then rotate to each other station in about 5 min intervals. At the end they will answer the questions

Fun activity to have students investigate and calculate probability.Using a Plinko-style board, students predict where the marble will drop. Probabilities are then found by breaking the board down into smaller versions and seeing how it relates to Pascal's Triangle to be able to determine the probabilities.There are questions related to the marble drop and probability, some questions about Plinko and an extension using The Wall game show.SMART Notebook presentation, word document and pdf version

Racial Profiling and Probability (Social Justice Math)
In this assignment, you will investigate racial profiling, or Driving While Black (DWB). African Americans and Latinos/as have complained, filed suit, and organized against what they believe are racist police practices—being stopped, searched, harassed, and arrested because they “fit” a racial profile—they are African American (Black) or Latino/a (Brown). But is this true? How do we know? And can mathematics be a useful tool in helping us answer this question?These questions will be answered usi

Halloween Party - Math Problem Solving
In this activity, students will be planning a Halloween party for their class. They will need to "purchase" supplies for their party using a budget that you set. I set a budget that forces the students to make budget choices, i.e., I don't give them enough to buy everything they want. Students will work in partners to plan their party, making decisions based on their budget constraints. Students are also asked to perform some data analysis on the party choices. This is a good activity to do
