1. HOMEWORK: Model 3 Problems from Handout
2. Measure Drill
3. Page 33 Problem 4.3 Walk-through

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: Model 3/5 + 6/7 using the Fractionator. Page 33 Problem 4.3 Walk through with a class demonstraction/data acquisition. NOTES: HOMEWORK: Page 37 #8

3. Fair Game Project Start [Project Document]Link Graphic

OBJECTIVE: See 11-21 above. ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm-Up - fraction addition (proper fractions) model, then convert to decimals. Students will start working on their fair game project within their designated groups (if appropriate) Today's goal is the game design and a rough set up to play the game and see if it works. Summarize the day's activities by listing the three events and the general outline of the game. NOTES: HOMEWORK: Page 39 #9
