6:01 Chance language
Exploring vocabulary related to chance, including matching vocabulary labels to a probability scale, and matching labels to chance event scenarios.
6:02 Chance outcomes
Exploring the concepts of even chance, equal chance, and possible outcomes using word problems. Writing chance outcomes as a fraction, decimal and percentage. Exploring chance language.
6:02PT Progress test
6:03 Chance experiments
Estimating the chance of certain outcomes from tossing two dice and tallying in tables. Writing chances as fractions and as percentages. Grouping chance outcomes to decide on larger outcomes eg. chance of even/ odd numbers occurring. Ordering chance outcomes. Greater than/ less than. Division and addition.
6:04 Chance and surveys
Reading a results table from a survey and using it to estimate the chance of certain results occurring. Least likely/ most likely/ as likely. Understanding how increasing the sample size changes chance outcomes.
6:05 Samples: making predictions
Making predictions about chance outcomes and the larger population from a repeated chance experiment involving random samples. Likely/ unlikely, accuracy of predictions, tallying results, increasing the sample size.
6:05E Experiments with chance
Making predictions and carrying out an experiment involving tossing a matchbox with labelled sides. Calculating the percentage chance of landing certain sides. Reflecting on element of chance, increasing the sample size, and experimental versus real probabilities.
6:06 Chance & data
Estimating chance outcomes from chance experiments involving random selections. Making predictions about larger populations from a sample. Writing chance as a percentage. Chance language review.
