Description
This versatile lesson allows you to use any multi-colored candy pieces (in case of allergies to peanuts or sales at the store) to calculate theoretical and experimental probability. Students complete data tables, calculate fractions, decimals, and percents and write about their findings. There is also an extension piece that requires students display data in circle graphs and compare them with others.
