5.12B - Use experimental results to make predictions |
| The Texas Education Agency states: |
| Students will be asked to use an experimental probability to predict the number of times a given outcome will occur in a given total number of outcomes. |
| Lessons: |
| Day 1 |
|
Students will use experimental results to
make predictions.
Notes - Use Experimental Results to Make Predictions |
| Day 2 |
| Student will pull chips out of a bag and record the results using a line plot. The students will then write the data as a fraction. |
| Day 3 |
| Students will use the data collected in their probability experiment and create a graph in excel. |
| Day 4 |
| Students will use the data collected in the previous experiment to predict how many of each color chip are in the bag. |
| Day 5 |
| Students will look at all the data collected and make predictions about the contents of their bag. Students will write a paper about what they learned in their probability experiment. Students will be given a rubric for their probability paper. |
