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.

OBJECTIVE: Check the GLE Numbers Here [GLE 3.2.1 Apply prediction and inference skills to
make or evaluate conjectures. * Predict the probability of
future events based on empirical data. [1.4.2] * Predict the
probability of outcomes of experiments and test the
predictions. [1.4.2]] TEXT •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 [GLE 1.4.2] ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT:
From Page 23 = measure the central angles of Kalvin's spinner
and make a large copy. Conduct the experiment P22+FF Problem

OBJECTIVE: See 11-2 above ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm Up -
Decimal multiplication and division. Revisit Page 23 Find the
common denominator for Kalvin's Spinner. Use a computer to
generate data for the number of segments (common denominator)
and calculate the pseudo experimental probability for 500 spins.
NOTES: Hint: Find the fractional parts of the circle for 10:00,
11:00 and 12:00. Let the numerator represent how many sections of
the spinner to count. Use spinner script. HOMEWORK: Page 67-68

make or evaluate conjectures. * Predict the probability of
future events based on empirical data. [1.4.2] * Predict the
probability of outcomes of experiments and test the
predictions. [1.4.2]] TEXT •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: Do page 30 Problem 4.1 all NOTES:
