In 'Flip a Pig', students will conduct chance experiments to investigate the concept of chance, and how certain outcomes can be likely or unlikely.
Describes mathematical situations and methods using everyday and some mathematical language, actions, materials, diagrams and symbols
Recognises and describes the element of chance in everyday events
Uses appropriate terminology to describe, and symbols to represent, mathematical ideas
Checks the accuracy of a statement and explains the reasoning used
Describes and compares chance events in social and experimental contexts
Recognises and describes the element of chance in everyday events
Records and compares the results of chance experiments
Identify practical activities and everyday events that involve chance. Describe outcomes as ‘likely’ or ‘unlikely’ and identify some events as ‘certain’ or ‘impossible’
Identify outcomes of familiar events involving chance and describe them using everyday language such as ‘will happen’, ‘won’t happen’ or ‘might happen’
Conduct chance experiments, identify and describe possible outcomes and recognise variation in results
Identify practical activities and everyday events involving chance; describe possible outcomes and events as ‘likely’ or ‘unlikely’ and identify some events as ‘certain’ or ‘impossible’ explaining reasoning
Conduct repeated chance experiments; identify and describe possible outcomes, record the results, recognise and discuss the variation
Identify practical activities and everyday events that involve Probability (Chance). Describe outcomes as ‘likely’ or ‘unlikely’ and identify some events as ‘certain’ or ‘impossible’
Conduct Probability (Chance) experiments, identify and describe possible outcomes and recognise variation in results
