Conduct chance experiments: Year 9 – planning tool
This planning resource for Year 9 is for the topic of Conduct chance experiments. Students draw on what they have learnt about probabilities related to compound events and apply this knowledge in a variety of experiments. The use of digital tools and simulations allow for repeated practice of compound events and help to consolidate a deeper understanding around this topic.
