experimental probability: simulations, surveys, samples, etc. - visual interactive "doodle note" When students color or doodle in math class, it activates both hemispheres of the brain at the same time. There are proven benefits of this cross-lateral brain activity: - new learning - relaxation (less math anxiety) - visual connections - better memory & retention of the content! Students fill in the sheets, answer the questions, and color, doodle or embellish. Then, they can use it as a study guide later on. Graphic doodle and sketch notes take full advantage of Dual Coding Theory (the way brains process visual and linguistic information) to maximize retention. Content includes: - meaning of experimental probability - 2 main methods - survey and simulation - trying a simulation (examples) - interpreting results and their accuracy - survey populations - samples & random samples - practice examples - visuals and room for creativity & interaction Check out the preview images for more detail about this item and the research behind it. Visual note taking strategies like sketch notes or doodle notes are based on dual coding theory. When we can blend the text input with graphic/visual input, the student brain processes the information differently and can more easily convert the new learning into long-term memory. This strategy also integrates the left and right hemispheres of the brain to increase focus, learning, and retention! 1 printable student page is included, plus an answer key, sample, and info. ** This resource is also available as part of a DISCOUNTED package deal for teaching probability here. _________________________________________________________________ Reviews from other teachers: -The Doodle notes helped the students to stay on task and focused during the direct instruction. They enjoyed being able to color as part of the note taking process. -Fun notes, not too much writing so my students are more willing to participate and follow along. -Love doodle notes and these worked out great because I didn't have time to make my own templates. -This was a fantastic resource to use with my students as I could upload it for them to print out and use! -Love this! I own all of the geometry doodle notes and many of the activities. My students love doing them!
