conduct repeated chance experiments to observe relationships between outcomes in games and other chance situations, and identify and describe the variation in results
These quizzes practise concepts within this topic. Multiple-choice answers alone do not demonstrate drawing, conducting an investigation or using a digital tool.

These subskills are derived directly from the official descriptor because the supplied alignment document contains no mapped rows for this code.
Descriptor-derived subskills
- D01Conducting repeated chance trialsDirectly derived from the repeated chance-experiment requirement.
- D02Recording outcomesDerived process subskill needed to observe relationships and variation across trials.
- D03Comparing results from different trialsDerived from observing relationships between outcomes across repeated experiments.
- D04Observing variationDirectly derived from identifying variation in results.
- D05Explaining why results can differDerived from describing the variation observed in repeated results.
- D06Comparing small and larger numbers of trialsDerived from reasoning about variation in repeated chance experiments.
- D07Evaluating simple gamesDerived from the descriptor's explicit games context.
- D08Interpreting experimental resultsDerived from observing relationships between experimental outcomes.
- D09Avoiding certainty claims from a small sampleDerived process subskill for interpreting variation without overgeneralising.
- D10Communicating observations using age-appropriate chance languageDerived from describing variation and outcome relationships.
