P6 have been working in trios to complete various probability challenges. They were then asked to explain their learning.

Alistair – I was playing a game with Katie and Kacie. It was about probability and chance. It was good. There was a really low chance of getting an ‘A or F’ on the chart because you had to get heads all the time or tails all the time.

The chance of landing of the letters A – F were as follows:

A and F were unlikely

B and E were likely

C and D were very likely

Chloe M – When rolling 2 dice you are more likely to get a total of 6 because more numbers make 6. You can only add 1 and 1 to get a total of 2.

Lilia – I was explaining to Afton why I thought the next card was likely to be higher. I said there were more numbers higher than 4 than lower. I explained that 5, 6, 7 and 8 were all higher but only 1, 2 and 3 were lower.
