We started with sorting...well, eating. J was super excited for this lesson. So excited, that he wouldn't focus and kept eating our lesson. John snuck a few too...

| Our sorted cup of M&Ms |

Shook it up and tossed it on the floor like this...
and counted the M's (3 in the picture below)...
J liked the rolling of the M&Ms more than picking and sorting the colors. Well, J liked eating our experiment more than the experiment itself. Sigh. John wanted me to make sure to recommend rolling the M&Ms more than 37 times and plotting the results as you go. The plot should be more normal looking (bell-shaped) the more you roll. However, with our 37, I'm seeing a bell-shaped trend. What do you think?

Whaaaaaat!!! No Tan!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteUnless you are eating a 25+ year old bag or a specialty bag of M&Ms, tan is no longer an option. I remember doing math with M&Ms in elementary school with tan specifically. Voting for the new color occurred in middle school for me.
