With a kit of simple materials (coins, counters, cards, dice, spinners and a draw-string bag, not included), students will be able to try a variety of chance experiments that highlight fundamental ideas of probability.
 
The experiments at the start of the book are designed to model the collecting of data, drawing up a table, making predictions and performing multiple trials. As the book progresses the experiments become more involved and students have to design their own tables and make decisions about how to carry out the experiments. They will also look at the key ideas of dependent and independent events. The book is suitable for years 3 and 4.
