Recall

Retrieve the key fact or method needed for probability pathway and repair.

Core practice

Two fair dice are rolled. Find P(at least one six).

Reasoning

A bag with 3 red and 2 blue is drawn twice without replacement. Are the events independent? Show with probabilities.

Exam-style

A probability problem is presented with two stages. Complete the representation, calculate the probability and explain any assumption.

What Went Well (WWW)

I used my working and assessment evidence to identify the exact mathematical step that was secure and the specific misconception that needs attention.

Even Better If (EBI)

I will correct one precise step, explain why the correction works and complete a fresh delayed question without the original scaffold.

Stretch and deep challenge

Stretch: Two fair dice are rolled. Find P(at least one six).

Deep challenge: A bag with 3 red and 2 blue is drawn twice without replacement. Are the events independent? Show with probabilities.
