1. -HW P24 #1........
2. -Sector Measure...

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: Dividing circles to represent spinners from the experimental data. Students will take hypothetical experimental results and determine the sector size of the spinner. Math concept = fraction (results/totalspins) to decimal x 360 then measure with protractor on circle. NOTES: Period 6 needs time to finish 3.1 due to fire drill. [data sets available (out of 500) 167 160 173 || 77 85 84 70 87 97 || 104 109 84 102 101 || 121 125 109 145|| 72 65 76 69 70 77 71 || 64 66 61 69 65 66 57 52] HOMEWORK: Page 28 #1

[Run this program - use a number like 500 or 1000. When the pop-up window opens, move the window border and see if you can line up the bars. Prime numbers do not follow a pattern - hence they are RANDOM]Link Graphic

2. -Page 30 Problem 4.1+follow-up.

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 •To develop an understanding of the word random ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: P29 ff 'Predicting to win'Do P30 Problem 4.1 and follow-up NOTES: Demo/model THEORETICAL and EXPERIMENTAL and be sure to explain 'simulated' experimental. HOMEWORK: P35 #1

2. =Page 32 Problem 4.2+follow-up.

OBJECTIVE: See 11-25 above. ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Page 32, problem 4.2 'Drawing more blocks' Students will work on group problem 4.2 and follow-up NOTES: HOMEWORK: None
