Introduction

Welcome to my blog, my name is Nicole De Francisco but my friends call me Nicky. I´m in 8th, in my fourteen years of life this is the first time that I have been assigned to do a blog. It is a fascinating experience and sensation to do something that can be read by the rest of the world. I am going to take my time to explain you about probabilities, this includes finding experimental and theoretical probabilities, doing tree diagrams, area models and expected values. This weren't the topics that i chose, but the ones I was assigned by my computer teacher. but they are still very interesting.

My goal in this project is to create a blog about my math topics, so that students or anyone that wants to learn about probabilities can come in and learn some fascinanting facts and strategies. I am an eighth grader, but in this project I am going to play the role of a teacher that wants to show her students about probabilities. That is one of the subjects that are present on the school´s eighth grade syllabus. My work is obviausly directed and the students, but also to the school´s authorities because they must aprove my work. My final product would be in this blog and would include visual information, and the necesarry work for my students to learn.

but mostly i got my information about my first semester notebook. From my math class with my teacher Consuelo Vega.
