MATH30B-L059 - Mixed combination problems; nCr vs nPr choice; linear applied

MATH30B is delivery. Official identities remain 30-1, 30-2, 30-3. 90 combined-classroom lessons (~18 weeks × 5). Braiding adjusts the shared calendar; it does not delete strand outcomes. 10-session bootcamp overlays weeks 1-2 only.

Labels (post on the board)

  1. ALL STRANDS - shared launch only.
  2. 30-1 REQUIRED - MAT3791 tray; mastery evidence for 30-1 SOs listed below.
  3. 30-2 REQUIRED - MAT3792 tray; mastery evidence for 30-2 SOs listed below.
  4. 30-3 REQUIRED - MAT3793 tray; mastery evidence for 30-3 SOs listed below.
  5. CROSS-STRAND EXPOSURE ≠ mastery - hearing another tray is logged as EXPOSURE, never as an SO tick, never as a silent enrolment change.

ALL STRANDS launch (~10-14 min)

Interpolate a linear cost model (30-3) while 30-1 counts subsets.

Clock ~75 min unless the school uses 60; cut the workshop block first, never the strand exit ticket. Class C parallel workshops are the default when one strand is on exclusive work.

Official outcomes (REQUIRED on home strand)

StrandOfficial IDRole today
30-1MATH30-1-TRIGONOM-03-023REQUIRED - Determine the number of combinations of n different elements taken r at a time to solve problems

30-1 workshop - 30-1 REQUIRED

Clock: ~22-28 min after launch (cut workshop before cutting the strand exit ticket). Learners on this tray stay on 30-1.

MATH30-1-TRIGONOM-03-023

Official text: Determine the number of combinations of n different elements taken r at a time to solve problems

Worked example (unique to this hour, this strand, this SO): Compute C(13,5). Choose 5 test kits from 13 where order does not matter. Show C(n,r)=P(n,r)/r! and why dividing by r! is required.

LevelPrompt (inside the home strand)
FOUNDATIONList combinations of 3 from 4.
COREC(n,r) formula.
PROFICIENTChoose nCr vs nPr.
ADVANCEDRestriction on a committee.

Diagram: Timing: after retrieval, before independent practice. Do not open the diagram during the first retrieval prompt. Unordered-subset visual (nCr) distinct from nPr.

Independent practice: a new instance of today’s SO(s) with different numbers than the worked example. Two sentences on reasonableness.

Wrong-answer repair (do not praise):

  • 30-1 SO 023: Using nPr when order does not matter. Repair: name the first wrong line, replace it, and re-complete the CORE tray item. Do not praise the wrong line.

30-2 workshop - 30-2 REQUIRED

Clock: ~22-28 min after launch (cut workshop before cutting the strand exit ticket). Learners on this tray stay on 30-2.

MATH30-2-LOGICALR-06-008

Official text: Solve problems that involve combinations

Worked example (unique to this hour, this strand, this SO): Choose 5 people from 13 for a water-test committee (order does not matter). Compute nCr. Write one sentence on why this is not nPr.

LevelPrompt (inside the home strand)
FOUNDATIONList committees of 2 from 4.

PROFICIENTChoose nCr vs nPr.
ADVANCEDOptional harder restriction.

Diagram: Timing: after retrieval, before independent practice. Do not open the diagram during the first retrieval prompt. Committee diagram: order does not matter.

Independent practice: a new instance of today’s SO(s) with different numbers than the worked example. Two sentences on reasonableness.

Wrong-answer repair (do not praise):

  • 30-2 SO 008: Using nPr for an unordered committee. Repair: name the first wrong line, replace it, and re-complete the CORE tray item. Do not praise the wrong line.

30-3 workshop - 30-3 REQUIRED

Clock: ~22-28 min after launch (cut workshop before cutting the strand exit ticket). Learners on this tray stay on 30-3.

MATH30-3-ALGEBRA-01-008

Official text: Demonstrate an understanding of linear relations by: • recognizing patterns and trends • graphing • creating tables of values • writing equations • interpolating and extrapolating • solving problems

Worked example (unique to this hour, this strand, this SO): Table: hours 0, 1, 2, 3 vs litres treated 0, 17, 34, 51. Graph, write litres = (rate)(hours), interpolate at 1.5 h, extrapolate to 5 h with a caution.

PROFICIENTInterpolate.

Diagram: Timing: after retrieval, before independent practice. Do not open the diagram during the first retrieval prompt. VIS-M30B-LINEAR: table, graph, equation together.

Independent practice: a new instance of today’s SO(s) with different numbers than the worked example. Two sentences on reasonableness.

Wrong-answer repair (do not praise):

  • 30-3 SO 008: Extrapolating far beyond the table with no caution. Repair: name the first wrong line, replace it, and re-complete the CORE tray item. Do not praise the wrong line.

CROSS-STRAND EXPOSURE ≠ mastery

  • CROSS-STRAND EXPOSURE ≠ mastery. Log D items. Do not tick another strand’s SO.
  • AI Tutor must not treat an exposure card as proficiency.

Project or clean math

Project (Sustainable Community Water & Hygiene) - genuine math only: 30-2: model users, kits, or committees with today’s relation/counting SO. 30-3: site layout, vehicle if the enterprise needs one, ledger, linear fill-rate, or measurement of volume/chlorine - matching today’s SO.

AI Tutor

  • Load the authorized home strand only: MAT3791 (Mathematics 30-1) or MAT3792 (Mathematics 30-2) or MAT3793 (Mathematics 30-3) from the authorized profile.
  • Never silent-switch a struggling 30-1 learner into 30-2/30-3 banks (or the reverse) to “make it easier.”
  • Serve today’s home-strand SOs. Exposure cards are read-only.
  • Never dump diploma keys or released exam wording. Original items only.
  • Wrong answers: name the error and repair; do not praise.

Human-tutor handoff

Call a human tutor when: the learner cannot complete CORE after two documented repairs; an identity proof (30-1 006) is stuck after the identity map; a 30-2 017 source is unsafe or empty; a 30-3 vehicle/business number is being faked to match a hoped-for answer; distress, disclosure, or a request to change official enrolment. Enrolment changes are an office/PASI process, not a tutor action.

Diagram / whiteboard

Approved starter math30-quadratic-shift. Strand workshops may add axes/tables. Never praise a translated parabola as a circle.

Strand exit ticket (~8-12 min)
