Probability Quiz / Practice Activity: "Choose & Create"

This creative quiz includes questions and problems for basic probability. It can be used as a practice activity in class, as a review, or as an assessment.

Help ease test anxiety, cut back on cheating, and offer your students a customized, fun, on-level, and relaxing experience with this unique structure.

The "choose and create" format is designed for smooth and easy differentiation. It includes a teacher guide for discretely distributing versions of questions by level.

Students choose fun elements (a character, a world, three items, and a bonus). They quickly select and color / highlight their choices. Each one corresponds to a question that they will answer using basic probability skills and / or definitions.

Then, students build a quick "creation" using their elements, just for fun. This helps them relax, focus, and activate both sides of the brain for proven benefits. They can choose to do a little drawing, a quick story, or a poem as their creation, as long as it includes each element. They are challenged to try to incorporate the topic of the lesson material into their creation as well! You'll love seeing what they come up with.

Benefits:

- Eases testing anxiety

- Offers smooth differentiation (see “leveled insights” sheet on p.7)

- Engages both sides of the brain

- Allows for a bit of fun and choice

- Helps identify and / or prevent cheating
