Use David's excellent "normal distribution" calculator
http://davidmlane.com/hyperstat/z_table.html
click on "area from a value"
enter the data, click on "between" and enter 8 and 11 to get .4467
You can enter the data directly, no need to find z-scores first.
If you have converted to z-scores, enter 0 for mean and 1 for sd, your input for 8 would be -1.3333
and the input for 11 would be .095238
to get the same result of .4467
