  • EXPLORE / TŪHURA

    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING how to recognise and describe chance.


    Success Criteria: I can/have:

    • Identify if an event is certain, likely, unlikely, or impossible
    • Place events on a probability scale from 0 to 1
    • Describe the chance or likelihood of outcomes happening
    • Describe the likelihood of an event as a fraction or percentage
    • Test a fair coin so that I can toss to get a result 
    • Use a fair die to collect information/result
    • Use spinners to collect data
    • Use a deck of cards to determine probability
    • Calculate theoretical probabilities of different events happening


    Activities

    - pulling out coloured cubes from a bag to find fractions of chance with tagging to see what we have pulled out before
    - EP task on probability

    - rolling dice and flipping coins to calculate experimental probability
