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} |

Probabilities of 2 Known Outcomes
Suitable for students aged 11-14 years (Key Stage 3)
Mathematics
20 students
The lesson aligns with the UK National Curriculum for Mathematics, specifically focusing on the topic of probability and aims to develop understanding of basic probability concepts.
Step Number | Step Title | Length (minutes) | Details |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Introduction to Probability | 5 | Explain the concept of probability, emphasizing the two outcomes. Use examples such as coin tosses or rolling dice. |
2 | Interactive Demonstration | 5 | Conduct a simple demonstration using dice. Roll the dice and calculate probabilities based on results observed. |
3 | Guided Practice | 10 | Provide worksheets with probability problems. Work through the first problem as a class, then allow students to complete them in pairs. |
4 | Independent Practice | 5 | Students complete additional probability exercises individually while the teacher circulates to offer support. |
5 | Homework Assignment | 3 | Assign students a worksheet on probability to complete for homework. Ensure they understand it will be checked without presentations. |
6 | Review and Conclusion | 2 | Summarize key points of the lesson. Address any final questions and clarify any misconceptions. |
Students are to complete a worksheet that includes problems on calculating probabilities of two known outcomes. This will be checked in the next class without requiring any presentations from students.
