Australian Curriculum Version 9 Says:
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.
What this means
Predict the outcome of chance events. Conduct chance experiments and discuss the results.
- Students need to distinguish between events where the outcome is not affected by a previous event (independent) and outcomes that are affected by previous events.
- The outcome of flipping a coin is not affected by the outcome on the previous flip. It is an independent event.
- Drawing coloured cubes from a bag and not replacing them will affect the chance of drawing a coloured cube out of the bag.
It depends on the colour that was drawn out in the previous event.
Tip
- We suggest first ordering independent events.
Then move to dependent events.

Quick Guides (AC9) Purpose
These Quick Curriculum Guides have been designed to take a look at the new Australian Mathematics Curriculum (AC9), explain terminology and provide interpretations. The Notes version (downloadable) has one card per page with some lines for your own personal notes
Year 7+?
Our Quick Guides end at Year 6, but if you look at the bottom of the Year 6 cards you will see that they are linked onwards to Year 7. We recommend you visit the appropriate Curriculum pages on ACARA’s site.
