Concepts of chance start in Year 1. By Year 3, students classify outcomes as 'likely' or 'unlikely'. From Year 5, they analyse simple experiments and outcomes of two-step experiments.

Tutero's chance lesson involves activities like weather forecasting and risk assessment for camping trips. Students learn to apply principles of probability to make informed decisions based on statistical data. This practical approach enhances critical thinking and prepares students for analysing uncertainty and making predictions in various real-life situations.
This lesson plan on chance includes enabling prompts to assist students in grasping basic concepts of likelihood and randomness, as well as extending prompts to challenge those prepared to apply these concepts to more complex real-world situations. The prompts are designed to encourage a deeper understanding and practical application.

Tutero's chance exercise sheets introduce students to the concept of probability through games and everyday decision-making scenarios, such as predicting weather patterns or the outcome of sporting events. These practical exercises help students grasp the principles of chance in a fun and relevant way.

Understanding Likelihood
Starting with basic likelihood terms such as "likely" and "unlikely," students in early years use these terms to describe everyday events. As they progress, they adopt more quantitative language, including "certain," "probable," and "impossible." By Year 5, students are capable of evaluating the likelihood of different events using simple fractions, percentages, and more precise probability language, applying these concepts to both hypothetical and real-life situations.
Everyday Examples of Chance
Young learners initially engage with chance through straightforward examples like rolling dice or drawing cards. As they grow, they explore a wider range of everyday situations, such as weather forecasting or predicting outcomes of sports events. By Year 5, students critically analyse how chance affects daily decisions and occurrences, enhancing their understanding of randomness and probability in daily life.
Comparing Outcomes
Students begin by comparing simple event outcomes, such as the results of a race or a coin toss. Through the years, they examine outcomes involving multiple factors and possibilities, utilising basic statistical tools and probability concepts. By Year 5, they proficiently use data to compare and contrast outcomes, understanding how to make informed predictions and decisions based on statistical analysis.
