conduct repeated chance experiments including those with and without equally likely outcomes, observe and record the results; use frequency to compare outcomes and estimate their likelihoods

How Bloomi helps with this

This is a NAPLAN-year topic. Bloomi teaches it with a short explainer, guided practice, and NAPLAN-style questions — every one traceable to this exact code.

What this looks like in the classroom

• discussing and listing all the possible outcomes of an activity and conducting experiments to estimate the probabilities; for example, using coloured cards in a card game and experimenting with shuffling the deck and turning over one card at a time, recording and discussing the results
• conducting experiments, recording the outcomes and the number of times the outcomes occur, describing the relative frequency of each outcome; for example, using “I threw the coin \(10\) times, and the results were \(3\) times for a head, so that is \(3\) out of \(10\), and \(7\) times for a tail, so that is \(7\) out of \(10\)”
• experimenting with and comparing the outcomes of spinners with equal-coloured regions compared to unequal regions; responding to questions such as “How does this spinner differ to one where each of the colours has an equal chance of occurring?”, giving reasons
