Bat Probability

There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed A Bat!
by Lucille Colandro

After reading the book, investigate Batty Old Lady Probability.  Students spin to collect all of the items the Batty Old Lady swallowed, and tally each spin on the recording sheet. They then calculate the total spins it took them to get all 7 items, and add that figure to the class data. Teachers may help students analyze the class data and learn about probability in the process. The pdf document includes directions, game mat, picture cards, spinner, recording sheet and writing to learn handout.
