Full lesson	Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle}

Lesson plan

Topic

Probability

Objectives

• Understand the basic concepts of probability.
• Calculate the probability of simple events.
• Apply probability concepts to real-world scenarios.

Materials

• Whiteboard and markers
• Probability worksheets
• Dice (one per group)
• Spinner (if available)

National Curriculum Alignment

• Develop understanding of probability in line with the UK Mathematics National Curriculum for Key Stage 2.
• Use appropriate mathematical vocabulary and methods to explore probability concepts.

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length (minutes)	Details
1	Introduction to Probability	5	Begin with a brief discussion on what probability is. Introduce key terminology like "outcome," "event," and "chance."
2	Simple Events	5	Explain simple events and show examples using dice. Students will roll dice to identify outcomes.
3	Calculating Probability	10	Teach students how to calculate the probability of an event occurring using the formula P(A) = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes.
4	Guided Practice	5	Distribute worksheets with simple probability problems. Walk around to assist with problem-solving.
5	Real-Life Applications	3	Discuss examples of probability in everyday life (e.g. weather forecasts, games).
6	Summary & Homework	2	Recap key points of the lesson. Explain that homework will involve completing a worksheet on probability without presenting it in class.

Homework

• Complete the probability worksheet including scenarios where they calculate the probability of a given event occurring. Check homework without asking students to present in front of the class.

Notes for Teacher

• Ensure all students understand the basic concepts before moving on to calculations.
• Use interactive activities to maintain engagement.
• Be ready to provide additional examples if students struggle with the concepts.
