Another curriculum tie was to teach probability through stick games by Danielle Vankoughnett. The author provides an in-depth explanation of different stick games (Drop stick and Blackfoot Confederacy Stick Game) with images to aid in understanding, a lesson plan and worksheets. She also provides teacher resource links to videos and readings for background information about the Blackfoot Confederacy and linking Pow Wow dances to drop stick designs). I find this invaluable as one barrier I face is feeling uneducated about the topics, and such links build that knowledge and confidence. By learning different indigenous stick games, students also unpack the concept of theoretical and experimental probability. I included an image to give a visual on how she included examples to scaffold teacher understanding.
