In this presentation, students learn to to calculate and describe probability. They also are introduced to the basic ideas of statistics, where a smaller sample of probability data can get generalised to make estimates of probable outcomes.
This resource is part of a larger unit where students learn to describe and calculate chance in various ways and observe it at work in games and simple chance experiments. They also learn how probability samples can get generalised to larger populations.
Construct sample spaces for single-step experiments with equally likely outcomes
Assign probabilities to the outcomes of events and determine probabilities for events
