Junior Probability
Is year 9 and 10 really just about flipping coins, rolling dice and playing fun games? Michelle and Grant looked at Junior Probability and how important it is to build Probability foundations for future success. Teachers trialed activities that start conversations about randomness, chance, unpredictability and risk.
