Abstract

Probability requires teaching approaches that allow children to predict, observe and experiment with concreate materials, games and simulations. In this study, we explored one teacher's beliefs and practices of teaching probability using game-based approaches. We employed a design-based research approach to explore how our case study teacher engaged with an hour-long professional learning on using a game-based probability teaching sequence. We found that our case study teacher's espoused beliefs and self-reported practices aligned with knowledge of teaching probability demonstrated during the professional learning activity.
