Teacher Name: | Amritpal Singh Sandhu |
Grade: | Grade 11-12 |
Subject: | Math |
Topic: | Learning about Probability of picking from a deck of cards. |
Content: | Knowledge of playing cards and basic understanding about probability |
Goals: | Solving playing cards probability problems of drawing two cards simultaneously based on a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards |
Objectives: | Learning Basic concept on drawing a card in first class |
Materials: | Playing cards, calculator, notebook, a pencil or pen |
Introduction: | Ask all the students who likes to play cards, how much knowledge they have about suits and colors of cards |
Development: | Start from very basic, probability of one cards from well-shuffled deck of 52 cards, then move to different suits, black cards, red cards, and face cards. |
Practice: | Calculate probability of second card drawn from well-shuffled pack of 52 cards from where one card has been already drawn. |
Accommodations: | For those who don't have knowledge of cards, provide a list of required knowledge like In a pack or deck of 52 playing cards, they are divided into 4 suits of 13 cards each i.e. spades ♠ hearts ♥, diamonds ♦, clubs ♣.

King, Queen and Jack (or Knaves) are face cards. So, there are 12 face cards in the deck of 52 playing cards. |
Checking For Understanding: | Provide in class assignment (quizzes mainly)about probability problems. |
Closure: | Take a final in class exams consisting of all type of probability problems based on cards. |
