Get a Half Life!
Eighth graders use M&M's to experiment with data. They use a graphing calculator to determine the best equation for their data; linear, quadratic or exponential. They analyze the data to find the half-life of their M&M's.
Curated OER
Birthdays
Learners collect data about the birth months of each classmate using a calendar. They make a table with the information before designing a pictograph using cupcake images. They answer questions using the graph.
