Students decide which statement about a dot plot is incorrect and explain their reasoning.

Students select which graph matches a given statement.

Students cut out pictures and use them to show all the different possible combinations of two sets of objects.

Students record all the different combinations of lunches that could be chosen from five possibilities.

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

For this NEMP task students find the number of combinations of cups with saucers, and identify the most likely bag to contain a red marble.

In this practical task students use a paper doll and cut out clothing to work out all possible clothing combinations.

In this practical task, students use pictures of meat and salad fillings to work out all possible combinations of sandwiches. An optional activity is to make actual sandwiches.

For this practical task students cut out 4 children's faces and manipulate them in order to list all possible pairs and fours.

Students select from the words 'certain', 'likely', 'unlikely', and 'impossible' to show the probability of a spinner landing on a defined area.

Students record all the different combinations of sandwiches from two types of bread and three fillings.

Using pictures, students state the likelihood of items being selected from bags.

Students select from the words 'impossible', 'possible', and 'certain' to describe the probability of events happening.

Students show their understanding of probability by identifying the shapes most and least likely to be drawn from a bag.

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