1.				Describing likelihood Learners develop an understanding of the words used to describe the probability or likelihood of events.
2.
3.	Sort, represent and interpret category data Learners sort and organise category data and represent it on graphs.	Sort, represent and interpret category data Learners sort and organise category data and represent it on graphs.	Sort, represent and interpret category data Learners sort and organise category data and represent it on graphs.	Understanding chance Learners develop their concept of chance by discussing the likelihood of different events and use fractions to assign likelihoods to outcomes.
4.	Sort, represent and interpret number data Learners sort and organise number data and represent it on graphs.	Sort, represent and interpret number data Learners sort and organise number data and represent it on graphs.	Sort, represent and interpret number data Learners sort and organise number data and represent it on graphs.	Theoretical probability Learners develop their understanding of the difference between theoretical and experimental probabilities. Using frequencies to predict Learners use the frequencies of outcomes to predict the likelihood that an event will occur, and learn that probabilities are not absolute predictors in the short run.
5.				Theoretical probability Learners develop their understanding of the difference between theoretical and experimental probabilities. Using frequencies to predict Learners use the frequencies of outcomes to predict the likelihood that an event will occur, and learn that probabilities are not absolute predictors in the short run.
6.		Sample sizes Learners develop an understanding of how sample size influences the accuracy of a survey. Understanding the mean 1 Learners develop an understanding of the concept of a mean as a number that represents what all the data items would be if they were levelled out to be the same. Understanding the mean 2 Learners develop an understanding of the concept of the mean as the ‘balance point’ of a set of data.	Understanding media reports that include statistical information Learners develop the ability to interpret and critically analyse a media report that includes statistical information.	Fair games? Learners explore issues related to gambling to further develop their concept of chance and to develop an understanding of expected value. Lotto winners Learners learn to use tree diagrams, organised lists and how to multiply probabilities to calculate the theoretical probability of winning Lotto.
