Compound Events and Independent/Dependent Probability
Students will calculate probabilities of compound events, distinguishing between independent and dependent events.
Key Questions
- Compare and contrast independent and dependent events, providing real-world examples.
- Design a method for calculating the probability of two or more independent events occurring.
- Justify why the probability of a dependent event changes after the first event occurs.

Planning templates for Mathematics
5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
