Poisson and Binomial both the distribution are used for defining discrete events.You can tell that Poisson distribution is a subset of Binomial distribution.

Binomial is the most preliminary distribution to encounter probability and statistical problems.

On the other hand when any event occurs with a fixed time interval and having a fixed average rate then it is Poisson distribution.
