• VC2M4P01

  describe possible everyday events and the possible outcomes of chance experiments and order outcomes or events based on their likelihood of occurring; identify independent or dependent events

  Elaborations

  • using lists of events familiar to students and ordering them from ‘least likely’ to ‘most likely’ to occur; and considering and discussing why the order of some events might be different for different students
  • predicting the outcome of a coin toss after 5 heads have been tossed in a row, discussing the assertion that because so many heads came up, it is more likely that a tail rather than a head will come up next; and discussing with reasons why this assertion is correct or incorrect
  • predicting how likely it is – from least likely to most likely – that they would select a red ball from a bag containing 10 red balls and 5 white balls, from a bag containing 20 of each, or from a bag that has 25 red balls and 20 white balls, justifying their decision
  • identifying school activities where the chance of them taking place is affected by the chance of other events occurring; for example, given that there is a high chance of a storm on Friday, there is only a small chance that the coastal dune planting project will go ahead
  • listing the outcomes of everyday chance situations and identifying where one cannot happen if the other happens; for example, discussing that it cannot be hot and cold at the same time, or selecting a card from a deck and discussing if it is red it cannot be a spade or a club
  • identifying different dependent events where the chance of one outcome occurring will be affected by the occurrence of other outcomes and different independent events where the chance of one outcome occurring will not be affected by the occurrence of other outcome(s)

• VCDEC021

  Access and analyse information, feelings and opinions in a range of digital, print and multimodal texts

  Elaborations

  • listening to and viewing short informative texts such as television news items (Deutsche Welle), promotional videos or documentaries, and using tools such as guided note-taking or a concept map to extract key information to reuse in own texts
  • gathering information from appropriate sources about a topic of interest, for example, use of technology, healthy lifestyles, or aspects of life in German-speaking countries (sporting clubs, travel and holiday destinations)
  • compiling and comparing information and views/opinions from a range of spoken or written reports, for example, from interviews and evaluation forms related to a Schüleraustausch or Arbeitspraktikum
  • listening to, reading or viewing interviews with ordinary people, sports stars, musicians, environmentalists or politicians, and summarising and recording information and opinions, for example, writing a journal entry or blog describing a typical day and working conditions in a particular profession
  • using print and digital resources such as dictionaries, grammar references and encyclopaedias to support comprehension and research
