Geography: in your maps, create labels for the following countries

Label the following: 

Africa: Nigeria, Egypt, South Africa, Serra Leon

Europe: United Kingdom (UK), France, Germany, Spain, Italy

Oceania: Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea

Challenges: Chad, Easter Island, Albania, Panama, Uruguay

- study what you have learned today. test next week to label these countries in a paper map

- Math: probability, p.1 and p.2 (example 1 and 2 only)

- calculate the probability in example 2, and turn that into fraction

Part 1: Probability can be expressed in words (grade 4 expectations)

 

Certainty (for sure to win)   

Likely (great chance of winning)

Probable (a chance to win, but less than likely) 

Equal chance (50% chance of winning)

Possible (less than 50% chance of winning)

Unlikely (little chance of winning)

Impossible (no chance of winning)

 

Student’s work: Identify an event that represents these probability phrases

 

Probability Phrase

Example 1

Example 2

Certainty

There is toilet paper in the washroom

 

Likely

Someone wear a black shirt

 

Probable

It is going to be cold today (less than 5°C)

 

Equal chance

Get a head when flipping a quarter

 

Possible

All the regular teachers are in school

 

Unlikely

Someone wear winter boots in Kwok’s class

 

Impossible

Students have to go to school on Dec 25

 

 

 

These probabilities can be plotted along a line.  Mark the above phases along the line below:
