OBJECTIVE:  Check the GLE Numbers Here [GLE3.2.1 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. ]•To gain experience finding experimental probabilities of unequally likely events •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: DO problem 2.2 on page 16. Do the follow-up on the computer using larger numbers. Answer the same questions. Consolidate the data. NOTES: 23coins.html. HOMEWORK: Page 18 5-11 (number 11 - make a table, draw a picture, etc.)

[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: Introduce page 22, Problem 3.1 and follow-up NOTES: Set up demo using spinner.htm based on the 12 segments. Show a board model. HOMEWORK: Page 25 2&3

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 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: Start on page 29, problem 4.1 introduction. Do page 30 Problem 4.1 and follow-up activity. NOTES: Introduction to theoretical probability. Review the meaning of RANDOM. HOMEWORK: Finish 4.1
