Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

For this assignment scholars will design and create their own game. The purpose of this project is to investigate games of chance by using the probability concepts they have learned and applying them in designing, creating, and analyzing your own game

The game design should resemble the games you would find at a carnival, amusement park, or casino.

Scholars will need to be able to calculate the probabilities of the outcomes of your game and more importantly, you must also be able to explain them!

All games will be played at Family Math Night! This is a great night where all families are invited to come

So you create a model or a playable scale model that needs to be put together in order play. The key word here is that the game is playable!
