Probably Probability.

Today we began the class with Mental Math as usual.

After, Mr. Max gave us a probability lesson. He began by doing number four out of our probability booklet - The Jason and Penelope problem. It showed us how to solve this by using Pascal's Triangle.

Next, he went on to the old provincial exams, and showed us a question that was alot the same, only it was Martin going to the grocery store and Martin going to the school.

Max advised us, once again, to use the old exams to use for studying, because it is very helpful. And this way we can always know how many marks we get for what work we do.

Sub day 2

I was supposed to scribe yesterday but blogger was blocked on all the computers so I am going to let you know what happened. We had Mrs. Rogers for the period and worked on accelerated math and the Blackboard lessons on Probability. We were supposed to finish around 30 pages or so on Probability. Mr Max is back today so well see whats going on with the probability work.

April 9th, 2010

Hello,
Today Mr. Maksymchuk wasn't here so we had Miss Moore as a sub. We had to pick between pg 3 1A & 2B or pg 4 2a or 2b or pg 6 3b or pg 8 5A to hand in by Friday so today I'm guessing or Monday and hand it right to him if he is here. From the work booklet we received called Senior 4 Applied Mathematics ( 40s ) Design and Measurement Portfolio. and then it was just a work class.

EARLY DISMISSAL Apr. 7/10

Today we looked at more design and measurement problems. We mostly worked on the Picnic Table question. Excel seemed to be the most efficient way to solve this problem. But since the class was cut short due to early dismissal we didnt quite get the whole problem finished.

Thursday April 8

Mr. Maksymchuk was out of the class so Miss Moore was the substitute. We are to work on questions 1A and 1B on page 3, OR 2A on page 4, OR 2B on page 4, OR 3B on page 6, OR 5A on page 8. The questions are due after Friday's class.

Back to School!!!!!!!

We are back in class after our spring break. As we always did we would start with Mental Math. Following that we had went over a question in oral. Therefore, following that Mr. Maksymchuk had went and recorded it. We weren't able to to finish the lesson so Mr.Maksymchuk said that we are going to finish it tomorrow. (Tuesday)
