=Welcome to My Wiki Page!! =

I am Amy Smith, I am currently a senior at University of Alabama at Birmingham. I am developing a unit of study for sixth grades for the unit lesson probability! Enjoy!
Watch Video below for the notes we went over in class!! media type="youtube" key="OpQlZKx8Yho" height="283" width="378" align="center"

Theoretical Vs. Experimental Probability!

** Watch the video below for an example of how experimental and theoretical probability is different! **

Making Probability Fun!

** Below are some links to probability games I find fun, enjoyable, and can really help you study for an upcoming exam/quiz! **

**Common Core Standards that will be completed during this unit!**
 * CC-MA-2010.7.SP.5 || Understand that the probability of a chance event is a number between 0 and 1 that expresses the likelihood of the event occurring. Larger numbers indicate greater likelihood. A probability near 0 indicates an unlikely event, a probability around 1/2 indicates an event that is neither unlikely nor likely, and a probability near 1 indicates a likely event. ||
 * CC-MA-2010.7.SP.6 || Approximate the probability of a chance event by collecting data on the chance process that produces it and observing its long-run relative frequency, and predict the approximate relative frequency given the probability. For example, when rolling a number cube 600 times, predict that a 3 or 6 would be rolled roughly 200 times, but probably not exactly 200 times. ||
 * CC-MA-2010.7.SP.7 || Develop a probability model and use it to find probabilities of events. Compare probabilities from a model to observed frequencies; if the agreement is not good, explain possible sources of the discrepancy. ||

STUDY JAMS!!
I personally LOVE the StudyJams website! It is a great website no matter what you are learning! I have provided two links that will help you learn probability! Each link includes a step-by-step instructions on what to do, also a "test yourself" button to see how well you understand the material. P.S. USE THIS FOR ALL FUTURE LESSONS IT DOES HELP :)
