Probability
Skills
I can use the probability words impossible, certain and even chance to describe the probability of an event occurring.
I can use the language of probability to describe the probability of an event occurring.
I can describe the probability of an event happening using a fraction, decimal or percentage.
I can list all the possible outcomes to calculate probabilities. I can complete a sample space diagram and use it to calculate probabilities.
I understand the difference between experimental and theoretical probability. I can use relative frequency as an estimate and to compare the outcomes of experiments.
