Math And Science in FE7B

What an absolutely mar-vell-ous March break! I went skiing in the great province of Quebec, which is the reason why I missed three days of school. So . . . um . . . oops! Annnyyyywwwwaayyyy, since it's a new term, class FE7B is starting new subjects in both math and science! Firstly with math, we are starting the unit of Data Management and Probability!! We are able to role dice, throw paper cups and all that jazz! In the first part of the unit, we had to make tree diagrams to find all of the possible outcomes for different experiments. Here is an example of a problem we may encounter.

At a clothing store there is a sale that any customer can buy 1 pair of shoes, 1 pair of shorts and 1 tee-shirt for $30. There are 5 different coloured shirts-red, blue, purple, yellow and green. There are 3 different coloured shoes-orange, silver and cream. There are two different coloured shorts-gray and taupe. What are all the possible outcomes that customers can buy?There are 30 possible outcomes.

Also, with probability we have been taught how to find a Relative frequency when conducting an experiment through Experimental probability. For example: If you roll a die 10 times and if the 3 side appears 2 times, you can use experimental probability to find the relative frequency of the 3 side.

As for science, our new unit is about heat in the environment. I do not have much info on what work we've done but I do have info on what work we will be doing. In this unit class Fe7B will learn about how the Earth is organized and what it was like before us humans arrived and changed everything. How have humans affected heat on the planet and what was the heat like on the Earth before we came? Hopefully, all of these questions will be answered soon!

Ill blog soon!
