Probability Chance Experiments - Upper Primary (Years 5-6)
Description / Probability Chance Experiments - Upper Primary (Years 5-6)
Upper Primary is suitable for teaching Year 5 and 6 students.
This book builds on the experiments contained in the book 1 and introduces the ideas of sample spaces- the systematic listing of possible outcomes. While the experiments are more sophisticated they use the same material as book 1.
With a kit of simple materials (coins. counters, cards, dice, spinners and a draw-string bag), students will be able to try a variety of chance experiments that highlight fundamental ideas of probability. The experiments at the start of the book are designed to model the collecting of data, drawing up a table, making predictions and performing multiple trials. As the book progresses the experiments become more involved and students have to design their own tables and make decisions about how to carry out the experiments. They will also look at the key ideas of dependent and independent events.
