My Project

Help me use dice, Rubik's Pyramid, die game, and playing cards to create a project-based learning activity to learn about climate and environment through Statistics.

Students will use the material to predict outcomes and calculate the probability of different outcomes of human activity on Earth, our climate, and our environment.

Through these projects and activities, they will learn about Earth and how different human activities impact our climate and environment while they explore and learn about Statistics and Probability ideas. This project is an interdisciplinary learning that will connect Math and Science and will allow students to see the connections between Math and Science in real-world situations that are used by scientists all the time.
