🎯 WALT (We Are Learning To)

Today we are learning to:

  • Identify possible outcomes in chance-based investigations
  • Collect and record data from probability experiments
  • Compare experimental results with predicted probabilities
  • Use probability vocabulary correctly

📊 Part 1: Predicting Outcomes

1. List ALL possible outcomes when rolling a standard six-sided die:
2. For each event below, circle the best description of its chance:

a) Rolling a 7 on a six-sided die

Impossible

Unlikely

Possible

Likely

Certain

b) Getting heads when flipping a fair coin

Impossible

Unlikely

Possible

Likely

Certain

3. What fraction represents the probability of rolling an even number on a six-sided die?

Answer: _______

🎲 Part 2: Probability Experiments

4. Coin Flip Experiment: Work with your partner to flip a coin 15 times. Record your results using tally marks:
Outcome Tally Marks Total
Heads
Tails
5. Die Rolling Experiment: Roll a die 12 times. Record how many times you get each number:
Number 1 2 3 4 5 6
Frequency
6. Based on your coin experiment, what percentage of flips were heads? _______%
7. Which number appeared most often in your die experiment? _______

🤔 Part 3: Critical Thinking & Reflection

8. If you flipped a coin 10 times and got all heads, would this be impossible? Explain your reasoning:
9. Compare your experimental results with what you expected. Were there any surprises? Explain:
10. Your friend says: "I rolled a die 6 times and didn't get a single 6, so this die is broken." Do you agree? Why or why not?
