Candy Probability: Discovery of EXPERIMENTAL vs. THEORETICAL Probability
Middle Schoolers LOVE probability!
This is a GREAT lesson around Halloween when the kids are already hyped up on sugar and want to 'talk' to their classmates.
This activity allows the students to DISCOVER the differences between EXPERIMENTAL and THEORETICAL probability and connect it to everyday experiences. The probability lesson lends itself to fractions, decimals, percents, data collection, rational & irrational numbers, statistical graphs (box and whiskers, frequency tables...), measu

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

Mealworm Activity Pack
Teaching about life cycles?
Mealworms allow students to observe complete metamorphosis - little set-up, easy to do and minimal care required. You will need a few months to complete - but checking once a week on these little guys would be effective.
Mealworms go through stages: egg, larva, pupa and adult. Your students will love watching the worms change to pupas and then into adults (beetles).

LAB - Sugar Cube Weathering
This is a lab activity about physical weathering (abrasion) and chemical weathering (affect of temperature and surface area). Students will model abrasion by shaking sugar cubes in plastic bottles. Then, they will model the affect of temperature on weathering and the affect of surface area on weathering using sugar cubes.
This is a fun lab for students and is very cost-effective. I have students bring in empty gatorade bottles (they are hard plastic and will last for years). Sugar cubes can be
