1. -HWP74 1-3.......
2. =Prob 7.1 all....

OBJECTIVE: #To use counting trees for finding theoretical probabilities in binomial, or 50-50, probability situations #To understand the distinction between specific outcomes and events composed of a sequence of outcomes #To recognize that simultaneous trials and trials conducted one at a time give the same information #To use expected value to help make decisions in probability situations ACTIVITIES: Finish problem 7.1 'Counting Puppies' NOTES: HOMEWORK: ACE Pp75+ 7/9/10

1. -HWP78 Summary...
2. -P93 Unit Test...

OBJECTIVE: See 3-10 above. ACTIVITIES: P93 Unit Test NOTES: HOMEWORK: Plan a project. Students are to create a brainstorm plan on a game based on the hall tiles - i.e., what wins, how much; how much to charge etc. List what They think needs to be done to start a project.

The C-Wing hallway (home of the 7th Grade) is a long expanse of beige tone time interspersed with a type of pattern of red. blue and yellow tiles. In addition, there is one tile which has a brass access cover on it. At either end is a door with a large rubber mat on the floor. The question to be resolved is whether a game of chance can be devised from the pattern of tiles and if so:

  • how would it be played?
  • how would it be scored?
  • What would be the cost of a chance?
  • what would be the prize(s) or payoff(s)?
  • what would be the probability of winning?
  • and what would be the expected value of each attempt?

1. -Brainstorm......

OBJECTIVE: Develop a project. ACTIVITIES: Students will develop a project for tossing pennies down the hall. They are to include theoretical and experimental probabilities and how they hope to achieve their results. Will start with 4 groups. Will need a final Report by Wednesday 3-19 NOTES: HOMEWORK: ?
