Lesson Plan for Micro Teaching

Shan, Amandeep, and Pari

Subject: Probability of independent event                      Lesson Number: 1 of 1

Grade: Grade 8                                                         Time: 15 minutes

Big Idea for the Lesson: Finding probability of independent event.  

PLOs:   Student would be able to learn about the following topics:

• Data Analysis - critique ways in which data is presented
• Chance and Uncertainty –To solve problems involving the probability of independent events    

Objectives:   Students are expected to learn about how to find the probability of an event by using the definition of probability.     

Materials: paper, pencils, and laptops or tablets.

Hook: (about 1 min)

Showing the 1-die situation using MIT Scratch

Introducing the pattern that all numbers increased together.

Development: (about 13 min)

·      Teacher-led: (about min 4)

*Demonstrate sample space, outcome, event, probability, experiment, and trial. (2min)

             Demonstrate the MIT Scratch simulation and the EXCEL simulation (2 min)

·      Class activity: (about 9 min)

* Inviting students to explore the 2-die situation and share their solutions. (4 min)

             

  More questions: (5 min)

  Toss a coin, toss two coins, and 3-die situation and their sample space.

Assessment: Students would be assessed on their participation and work throughout the lesson (Fist of five).

Closing: (about 1 min): Students would be advised to write down key points of the lesson on their notebook.
