1. -Homework: Page 64 12-13.
2. -Filling and Wrapping Final........

OBJECTIVE: Assessment ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm-up: Area and probability: Filling and Wrapping final. NOTES: Tomorrow - start with 'How Likely is it' AND 'What do You Expect' HOMEWORK: Page 67 1&2

1. -Homework: Page 67 1&2......

OBJECTIVE: •To build intuition that probability, or chance, has to do with events that are uncertain but that have a pattern of regularity over the long run •To determine relative frequencies from experimental data and use them to predict behavior over the long run [4.2.1] •To observe that small numbers of trials may produce wide variation in results •To display collected data in graphs or tallies and use them to find experimental probabilities •To recognize equally likely events ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm-up: Area and probability: Probability, Equally Likely Events NOTES: Review/overview of 'How Likely Is It' HOMEWORK: TBA

1. .................

OBJECTIVE: •To gain experience finding experimental probabilities of unequally likely events[1.4.8][1.4.9] •To understand that chance (probability) is an estimate of behavior over the long run •To understand that to make good decisions based on experimental probabilities, the probabilities must be based on a large number of trials •To understand that a game of chance is fair only if each player has the same chance of winning, not just a possible chance of winning ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm-up: Area and probability: Equally likely and 'fair'Investigation Two: More Experiments with Chance. Unequally Likely Events, Possible and Probable Events NOTES: Review/overview of 'How Likely Is It' HOMEWORK: TBA

1. .................

OBJECTIVE: •To develop strategies for finding experimental probabilities with a new simulation tool: spinners •To understand that to make good decisions based on experimental probabilities, the probabilities must be based on a large number of trials [1.4.8][1.4.9] ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm-up: Area and probability: Investigation Three: Using Spinners to Predict Chance; Spinners, Angles, Using Statistics NOTES: Review/overview of 'How Likely Is It' HOMEWORK: TBA

1. -WarmUp Test.....

OBJECTIVE: •To understand the two ways to obtain probabilities: by gathering data from experiments (experimental probability) and by analyzing possible and favorable outcomes (theoretical probability)[1.4.2] •To understand the relationship between experimental and theoretical probabilities: when an experimental probability is based on a large number of trials, it is a good estimate of the theoretical probability •To develop strategies for finding theoretical probabilities, such as making an organized list of all possible outcomes [1.4.2] •To develop an understanding of the word random ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm-up Test: Area and probability: Investigation Four: Theoretical Probabilities; Theoretical Probabilities, Experimental Probabilities, Randomness NOTES: Review/overview of 'How Likely Is It' HOMEWORK: TBA
