Few things can motivate children to learn like the promise of a sweet and tasty treat. Given a bag of M&M®s, Skittles®, or other colorful candy, students first predict the contents of the bag before counting the pieces,...

Get the most Valentine's candy for your money with a fun math activity! After examining three deals for buying candy hearts in bulk, young mathematicians decide which deal is the best and use bar graphs to demonstrate their claim. They...

Determine the class favorite. The statistics lesson plan has pupils collect, display, and analyze data. Pairs rank four kinds of candy based on their individual preferences. Working as an entire class, learners determine a way to display...

It's time to show what they know! An assessment review concludes a five-part series about linear functions. It covers all concepts featured throughout the unit, including linear equations, graphs, tables, and problem solving.

Think critically — and linearly by applying linear equations to solve real-world problems. Young mathematicians write equations to model the profit on popcorn and cotton candy at a carnival and solve problems using these equations.

Collections of data represented in stem and leaf plots are organized by young statisticians as they embark some math engaging activities.

As if solving equations with an x isn't tricky enough, now they add a y, too? A pre-assessment gauges the knowledge of your classes related to systems. They are asked to solve graphically and algebraically and to solve word...

Connect linear equations, proportionality, and constant rates of change to linear functions. Young mathematicians learn how linear equations of the form y = mx + b can represent linear functions. They then explore examples of linear...

A series of math and science activities feature M&M's® as manipulatives to help kids work through equations. The resource includes exercises on finding averages, percent of compositions, moles in chemical reactions, genotypes and...
