OBJECTIVE: Check the GLE Numbers Here • To use a rule to generate a table or graph on the
graphing calculator [GLE 1.5.1 Identify, extend, or represent
patterns and sequences using tables, graphs, or expressions.
[RL, MC]] •To use a graphing calculator to compare the tables
and graphs of various rules; in particular, to decide whether a
given rule defines a straight-line (linear) function by
examining graphs [GLE 1.5.1 Use technology to generate graphic
representations of linear relationships. [SP]][GLE 1.5.2 Use
technology to determine the rule for a linear relationship.
[SP, RL]] ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Continue plotting problem 5.1.
Start groups on the computers using WinPlot to make their
graphs NOTES: Distibute 2 more sheets of graph paper per
student for the computer traces. Walk through the winPlot
program. HOMEWORK: None

OBJECTIVE: Check the GLE Numbers Here See 10-25 above. EALR 1.4: Understand and apply
concepts and procedures from probability and statistics. TEXT:
•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 Test Spec
PS01 a) Items may ask students to identify, determine,
interpret, and/or express simple probabilities in the form of a
ratio, decimal, or percent. ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Unit Test.
Continue WinPlot as appropriate. Time Permitting, Distribute
and completePages 110 and 111 as a pre-test on probability.
NOTES: P110 & P111 is a handout. HOMEWORK: Unit Test

OBJECTIVE: Check the GLE Numbers Here See 10-26 above; •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:
Do and/or evaluate P110 and 111 for placement. If OK then start
on Page 22, Using spinners to predict chances Else return to
Investigations 1 and 2. Do problem 3.1 NOTES: need page 92

OBJECTIVE: Check the GLE Numbers Here •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
