B7.4.2.1.1

Content Standard

Identify the sample space for a probability experiment involving single events and express the probabilities of given events as fractions, decimals, percentages

Indicator

Demonstrate understanding of likelihood of a single outcome occurring by providing examples of events that are impossible, possible, or certain from personal contexts.

Performance Indicator

Learners will demonstrate understanding of likelihood by classifying events from personal contexts as impossible, possible, or certain.

Lesson Activities by Day

Date	Phase 1: Starter (7 mins) Preparing the brain	Phase 2: Main (20 mins) New learning + assessment	Resources	Phase 3: Plenary (6 mins) Reflection + exercise
Mon 27 Apr 2026	1Recall everyday events and identify whether they are likely or unlikely to happen 2Ask learners: Can a stone float on water? Why or why not? Collect 3 responses and confirm that stones cannot float — this is an impossible event	CLASSIFYING EVENTS AS IMPOSSIBLE, POSSIBLE, OR CERTAIN 1Display ten event statements on the board using the textbook examples. Read aloud: (1) Akua will eat jollof rice for lunch tomorrow; (2) The sun will rise in the east tomorrow; (3) Kofi will turn into a fish next week. Ask learners to write in their exercise books whether each event is impossible, possible, or certain. Use the ruler and graph board to draw a simple three-column table on the board labelled Impossible \| Possible \| Certain. Invite three learners — one to place event 1, one for event 2, one for event 3 — on the table and explain their choice 2Provide each learner with the calculator and one blank sheet from the textbook's worksheet section. Ask them to create their own three examples of events from school life: one impossible event (like a teacher flying to Makola Market), one possible event (like Ama becoming a nurse), and one certain event (like the school bell ringing at 12:30 pm). Learners write these in their exercise books. Call on representatives from mixed ability groups to read their examples aloud and the class votes thumbs up if they agree with the classification 3Struggling learners: provide 5 pre-written events on cards and ask them to sort into the three categories only. Fast finishers: create a fourth category of events and justify why it does not fit the three main types.	1Textbook 2Exercise book 3Calculator 4Ruler and graph board	1Display three new events on the board: (1) Yakubu will score a goal in next week's football match; (2) Amina will attend school on a school day; (3) A cow will lay an egg tomorrow. Ask learners to whisper their classification to their partner, then one pair shares each answer with reasons 2Learners hold up fingers 1–3 to show their confidence: 1 finger = not sure about impossible/possible/certain; 2 fingers = fairly sure; 3 fingers = very sure. Address any learners showing 1 finger by asking them to explain which category confused them Exercise 1Write this event in your exercise book: Ama will win the National Mathematics Championship next month. Is this event impossible, possible, or certain? Give one reason for your answer using a complete sentence
