· to
create and use spinners with multiple outcomes · to
identify combinations of outcomes to achieve equal chances · to
understand that theoretical outcomes are more closely approximated when the
number of trials are increased |
·
At this site, students will build four spinners, each with equal
outcomes for ‘blue’ and ‘red’. o
The first spinner built should have two sectors, one red, one blue,
with equal outcomes. Spin 1000
trials. The hare is ‘blue’; the tortoise is ‘red’. Move forward on the board game accordingly
(2 places for a win, 1 place for a tie).
o
The second spinner built should have four sectors. Using only the colours red and blue,
students should build the spinner with equal outcomes for both colours. Spin 1000 trials. The hare is ‘blue’; the tortoise is ‘red’. Move forward on the board game accordingly
(2 places for a win, 1 place for a tie).
o
The third spinner built should have six sectors. Using only the colours red and blue,
students should build the spinner with equal outcomes for both colours. Spin 1000 trials. The hare is ‘blue’; the tortoise is ‘red’. Move forward on the board game accordingly
(2 places for a win, 1 place for a tie).
o
The fourth spinner built should also have six. Using only the colours red and blue,
students should build the spinner with equal outcomes for both colours (they
should be able to arrange the colours differently to the previous
spinner). Spin 1000 trials. The hare is ‘blue’; the tortoise is ‘red’. Move forward on the board game accordingly
(2 places for a win, 1 place for a tie).
