Probability Pre-Assessment

Probability Pre-Assessment
View Curriculum Codes   
Description

This pre-assessment helps gauge Year 6 students' understanding of repeated chance experiments, using digital tools to compare expected and actual results and how increasing trials affects variation. It covers describing probabilities in fractions, decimals, and percentages and recognising the probability scale from 0 to 1 or 0% to 100%.

Curriculum Codes

VC2M6P01 2.0

describe probabilities using fractions, decimals and percentages; recognise that probabilities lie on numerical scales of 0–‍1 or 0%–100%; use estimation to assign probabilities that events occur in a given context, using common fractions, percentages and decimals

VCMSP233

Conduct chance experiments with both small and large numbers of trials using appropriate digital technologies

VCMSP234

Compare observed frequencies across experiments with expected frequencies

AC9M6P02 9

Conduct repeated chance experiments and run simulations with an increasing number of trials using digital tools; compare observations with expected results and discuss the effect on variation of increasing the number of trials
