Thursday Classwork/Homework

Today in class we worked in groups to write a procedure for each of the 7 sampling methods that we need to know (how to carry out)--tonight, please finish any procedures you did not get to in class today.

• If you were out, here's the classwork assignment:
• Developing Sampling Methods Classwork
• Remember, your sampling method must be detailed enough that I can read it and carry out the exact same procedure
• For example, you can't write, "randomly select 33 lakes." You need to explain HOW to randomly select 33 lakes!
• Look at our notes about "random assignment of treatments" for a sample of the level of detail we need.
• Check your answers!
• Read this document!
• These aren't answers to your same context, but the link below shows sample procedures for each sampling method using a different context
• Use these examples to decide if you think you have enough detail! If not, add it!
• It might even be a good idea to print this in the library and keep it as more notes!
• Sampling Methods Examples

2.) STAMPS ARE DUE! You're running out of time to get them in!

• Get all of your stamps (blue smiley faces) together. Use whatever works for you--a bag, folder, staple them all together, glue/tape all the stamps to one paper, or whatever other method you like...
• Count all of your stamps and write your total on the front (with your name)
• Double check your count
• I will choose 5 random names from each period to double check; if your count is incorrect you will be given a 0
• I don't know how many stamps you will need total, you just have to give me all of them! (next quarter it's a different stamp and a different color)

3.) STUDY FOR YOUR MIDTERMS! 

• This is a tough test--it's a practice AP exam! 
• 28 multiple choice = 50% of exam score
• 5 free response = 50% of exam score
• Exams will be scored roughly based on the same scoring as an AP exam!
• Your goal: earn at least 55% correct to earn a 3!
• Projected 5 = A, 4 = B, 3 = C, 2 = D, 1 = F for your exam
• What's on the midterm exam?
• 2019-20 Midterm Topics (Click Me!)
• How can I study for the exam?
• How to Study for the AP Stat Midterm! (Click Me!)
• I have assigned a "Midterm Review" assignment in AP Classroom!
• Many of these questions have appeared on pasts quizzes and tests (it's hard to find unique ones because I use so many for our classroom assessments), but they're still great practice!
