Good evening parents and students!

Wow, what a change in the weather and here we thought winter was over! 

Math:
We began the day by working on math and taking up our answers in round discussion.
In the new lesson for today we covered 3 topics, here are the notes in case the students need help.

1. Theoretical and Experimental Probability
Theoretical Probability: The outcome you expect (favourable). 
ex. theoretical probability of getting heads is 1 out of 2 (1/2).
Experimental Probability: The actual outcome (the number of times it occurs). 
ex. in class, the experimental probability was 6 out of 10.

2. Probability as Fractions 
**Always start by making the fraction true.
- you may use multiples as long as you multiple by the same number!

3. Probability as Percent **it helps to go in order
1. Use words:
- She have a 3 out of 1 chance of getting orange flavoured water. So taking orange in unlikely.
2. Use a fraction: 
-Probability of getting orange 3/15 or its multiple 1/5
3. Use decimals:
-1/5 (you need to multiple 5 x 20 to get 100, so then you multiply the numerator by 20 as well) = 2/100 or 0.20
4. Use percent: 
0.2 (x100) = 20%

Students worked on their projects and a lot of progress has been made! Here are a few:
