Overview of Activities
- The Probability Scale; Words Describing Chance:
Definitions and given scenarios
Chance and Data (language of chance); class surveys
2a. Theoretical Probability: Manipulatives
spinner numbers
spinner names
spinner colours
marbles
dice numbers
playing cards
2b. Theoretical Probability: Tree Diagrams and Grids
possible outcomes of two coins using a tree diagram and a grid
possible outcomes of a coin and a dice using a tree diagram and a grid
possible outcomes of a dice and a spinner using a tree diagram and a grid
3a. Theoretical and Experimental Probability:
Rolling a six-sided dice a given number of times.
Tossing two coins a given number of times.
Spinning a spinner a given number of times.
Picking an M&M colour a given number of times.
3b. Experimental Probability:
Dice roll to find the number of trials and relative frequency of the numbers rolled.
Group experiment to toss a coin a given number of times and record the total heads, total tails, total outcomes, and relative frequencies of heads and tails (fractions and decimals) for each group. This is to prove the law of large numbers that indicate that as the number of trials increase, the relative frequencies tend to get closer to the expected value (0.5) of tossing a coin.
- Word Problems for both theoretical and experimental probability outcomes:
Nature of Problems (sample space, lists, tree diagrams)
Picking a favourable outcome from given possible outcomes.
