**If you were absent Friday I need you to make up your test tomorrow during lunch, study hall, or after school!**

Tuesday HW = conditions practice
  • Page 428:
    • 7b, 
    • 11 (just conditions), 
    • 23 (conditions), 
    • 29ab (this is review, like the elevator question from our weekend hw)
  • The answers for 7b, 11, and 23 are not worded well in the back of the book--use the back to check your general ideas are correct, and then tomorrow in class you'll get an answer key to check your context/detail more thoroughly

Today's Class Recap:
  • Stamp = Conditions practice (top right slide about gestation periods)
  • Ch. 18 Notes:
    • What is a sampling distribution?
      • Defined a sampling distribution
      • Outlined the process for creating a sampling distribution
      • Reviewed "sampling variability"
    • Looked at an applet (linked below) to explore how a sampling distribution is created, its resulting shape, and why it is expected to have this shape...
      • More to come on this tomorrow....
  • Here is the link to the applet we explored in class today, as well as an applet you can use to explore a sampling distribution for means!

Here's the plan for the coming days, in case you're curious:
  • Wednesday (2/6) = more sampling distributions discussion, another applet, define shape, center, spread of each sampling distribution
  • Thursday (2/7) = sampling distributions examples 
  • Friday (2/8) = finish sampling distribution notes/examples
  • Monday (2/11) = chapter 18 vocab quiz, sampling distribution FR and MC
  • Tuesday (2/12) = chapter 18 "math" quiz?, chapter 19 intro notes (confidence intervals!)
  • Weds. (2/13) to Friday (2/15) = chapter 19 notes/discussion/examples: confidence intervals for proportions!
