When something has no chance of happening we say its impossible. Sometimes the chance of something happening is unlikely. Listen to these excuses explaining why the host did not do his homework. Which of his excuses might the teacher think, the chance of this happening is ... 'possible'?
What is the probability there are at least two people in your class who have the same birthday? If you have at least 23 people in your class, the chances are good. Find out the maths behind this theory.
This tutorial is suitable for use with a screen reader. It explains how the use of simple words can describe the likelihood of everyday events. How likely is an event: certain, likely, equal chance, unlikely or certainly not? Answer some sample questions using these words and then build your own examples. This learning ...
Look at results in a frequency graph compiled after testing an unseen spinner. Work out the likely proportions of colours in the mystery spinner. Use a tool to build a new spinner (a dial with a pointer). Choose up to five equal-sized sectors. Fill the sectors with up to five colours. For example, make a five-part spinner ...
This tutorial is suitable for use with a screen reader. It explains how the use of simple words can describe the likelihood of everyday events.

Use a vending machine to squirt coloured 'slushies' into ice-cream cones. Work out which 'sludge events' are possible and then choose a matching probability word.
Use a vending machine to get a vile-flavoured drink such as cabbage, smelly sock or rusty nail. The machine serves a can of drink randomly from four slots. Work out the likelihood of getting each flavour. Then choose a matching probability word: impossible, unlikely, equal, likely or certain. Move on to filling the slots ...
The focus of this activity is for students to conduct an experiment that involves chance.They will use the information they gather to represent their findings.
In Part 1, students were introduced to probability without replacement, by exploring the game of egg roulette. Contestants take it in turns to choose an egg and smash it on their head hoping to avoid the 3 raw eggs! In this lesson, students consolidate and make deeper connections using simulation to address misconceptions ...
Some naughty little goats should be in bed, but they are still up and playing games! You will need to choose teams, then use your strategies (such as combinations for 20) to decide who wins: baby goats or babysitter! Mathematical ideas and strategies this game supports: numbers can be partitioned in many ways; there are ...
Smashing good fun learning about probability without replacement, by playing and exploring the game of egg roulette – 12 eggs, 3 raw and 9 cooked. Contestants take it in turns to choose an egg and smash it on their head hoping to avoid the 3 raw eggs!
