Theoretical and Expreimental Probabilities

Day 2

Grade 6s began their day with math. We took up yesterday’s homework tree diagrams. Today’s lesson was a strategy lesson where we wrote theoretical probabilities, conducted and experimental, wrote experimental probabilities, and compared probabilities. Students are asked to complete the practice problem on p. 421 of the MMS textbook. The unit test will be written on Monday, June 12^th.

We worked on report writing for this term’s Ontario Writing Assessment. Students read a sample of excellent report writing and generated a list of what was done well. We will used this to create our own checklist for students to refer to.

 

We had an Arts’ Night dress rehearsal today. Some students remembered their costumes. Everyone is reminded to bring their costumes (including a blazer and tie) for the performances tomorrow. Remember to bring an all-black outfit to change into for band. Arts Night takes place on Wednesday, June 7^th, at 1 pm (dress rehearsal) and 7 pm. Our theme this year is Music through the Eras! You are in for a fantastic night of art, dance, and song! We are asking that students be at the school 6:30 pm to get ready for the evening performance. We will also be selling treats and baked goods, so get ready for what is sure to be a wonderful evening. 

Students attended gym class today.
