Maths Unit: Repeated Chance Experiments
In this probability unit, your students learn about chance by completing a series of chance experiments. Students learn about outcomes through observation and learn how things in the past influence future outcomes. They begin to describe and order the likelihood of future events in familiar or unfamiliar games.
