Lesson Plan

Define the sample space as the set of all possible outcomes of an experiment and identify an event as a subset of that sample space

Describe an event both by a characteristic or category of its outcomes ("an even number") and by listing its outcomes in roster/set notation ({2, 4, 6})

Form and interpret the union (A or B), intersection (A and B), and complement (not A) of events, translating fluently between set notation and everyday "or / and / not" language

Represent events and their combinations using Venn diagrams and roster lists

Translate everyday descriptions of events into formal set-operation expressions and back
