This quiz resource includes 10 questions testing Year 6 students' understanding of probability and repeated chance experiments. It covers multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions on outcomes, relative frequency and using digital tools for simulations. Answers are provided, making it an ideal assessment tool for gauging students’ grasp of key concepts in probability.
Students can use their workbooks/ or small whiteboards and markers to complete this activity.
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
Conduct chance experiments with both small and large numbers of trials using appropriate digital technologies
Compare observed frequencies across experiments with expected frequencies
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
Conduct Probability (Chance) experiments with both small and large numbers of trials using appropriate digital technologies
Compare observed frequencies across experiments with expected frequencies
Describes and represents mathematical situations in a variety of ways using mathematical terminology and some conventions
Selects and applies appropriate problem- solving strategies, including the use of digital technologies, in undertaking investigations
Gives a valid reason for supporting one possible solution over another
Conducts chance experiments and assigns probabilities as values between 0 and 1 to describe their outcomes
Conducts chance experiments and quantifies the probability
