Probability resources

Students recognise equal and different likelihoods when playing a game of chance.

This task is about students selecting 'always', 'maybe' or 'never' to describe the probability of a range of events happening.

In this practical task, students use a coloured spinner and record the frequency of colours occurring. They then use their findings to record the probability of each event and interpret these.

Students match the descriptions: certain, impossible, good chance, poor chance, even chance to a set of probabilities shown as a fraction.

Students use a picture of a spinner to calculate the probability of the arrow pointing to the black or white portion of a card.

This task is about students selecting 'always', 'maybe' or 'never' to describe the probability of a range of probability events happening.

Students complete a tree diagram to illustrate all the different combinations of height and colour of four candles and evaluate probabilities for some combinations.

Students choose terms 'impossible', 'even', 'poor', 'good', and 'certain' to describe the chances of landing on selected squares in a board game.

Students use the statements 'impossible', 'unlikely', 'likely', and 'certain' to describe events.

Students complete a table to show whether an event has a 'certain', 'good', 'even', 'poor', or 'impossible' chance of ocurring.

Students carry out an investigation to determine the frequency and percentage of different numbers resulting from 100 dice throws. They construct a table to record the results.

Students interpret a tree diagram to answer questions about the probability of selecting certain combinations.
