Multiplication Theorem on Probability
Students will apply the multiplication theorem for both independent and dependent events.
Key Questions
- Analyze how the multiplication theorem simplifies the calculation of joint probabilities.
- Compare the multiplication rule for independent events with that for dependent events.
- Justify the use of tree diagrams in visualizing and solving problems with the multiplication theorem.

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.
