The full video is even better. Just 3 1/2 minutes of beautiful teaching from the 1960s at AT&T.

In this brief video, @timchartier explains how to use dice to simulate baseball. The kids I worked with yesterday really enjoyed it. Highly recommended activity for math camp, or elementary or middle schoolers learning about percentages, probability, etc.
