1. Adjustable Spinner - Students can create a game spinner with variable sized sectors to look at experimental and theoretical probabilities.
2. Adjustable Spinner - Change the number of sectors and increase or decrease their size to create any type of spinner. Then, conduct a probability experiment by spinning the spinner many times. How does the experimental probability compare with the theoretical probability
3. Analyzing game probabilities - five question multiple-choice quiz from Glencoe Math
4. Basic Spinner - Students can create a game spinner with one to twelve sectors to look at experimental and theoretical probabilities.
5. Marbles - Students learn about sampling with and without replacement by modeling drawing marbles from a bag.
6. Million Dollar Mission - a mathematics fantasy

9. Significant Figures Calculator - one of many calculators available from Omni Calculator
10. Two Colors - Students choose between three boxes and choose one marble from the box to look at conditional probabilities.
11. Understanding Experimental Probability - Experiment with experimental probability using a fixed size section spinner, a variable section spinner, 2 regular 6-sided number cubes or design your own number cubes.
12. What are Your Chances - What many people refer to as 'good luck' can actually be explained by a little knowledge about probability and statistics. Our dice game allows you to see how increasing or decreasing the number of dice rolls effects an outcome.
