Starting to Review for our Quiz on Thursday

Today we began to review for our quiz on Thursday.

After correcting last night's probability homework, we used the people in our class to determine probability:
Then we had a competition to see who could determine the probability of picking certain items from our junk boxes.  You needed to simplify the fractions in order to get the answers correct!  Congratulations to the winners!

We practiced using our divisibility rules in a Venn diagram and circling which numbers worked:


We sorted prime and composite numbers:


We didn't review percentages in class today, but that will also be on the quiz.  You will spend some more time practicing that on Tuesday!

I will not be in school on Tuesday because I will be celebrating the Second day of Rosh Hashanah.  If you are celebrating too, I wish you a sweet New Year.  The substitute on Tuesday will have review sheets to help you prepare for the quiz, and you can work on the study guide as well.

The Study Guide is due on Wednesday.  The quiz is on Thursday.

Probability

Notes from class:








Tonight's homework is to complete both sides of the probability worksheet.  On the side with the spinners, be sure to break the double sized sections into two equal parts to make the answers accurate.  If you keep them full sized, your answers won't work.

Probability


We were able to play with probability in class today!  Here are some highlights...


We can examine Probability in similar situations...



We can use probability to examine almost anything...



Or use traditional means of looking at probability...


Tonight's homework is to complete the probability worksheet.  The study guide is also due tomorrow.

Have a good night!
