The students loved this activity. Anything involving food/candy keeps them engaged!
My students loved it & it allowed them to understand probability better and the hands on experience was an added bonus.
My students loved the hands on activity involving candy.
The perfect resource for introducing a new concept as well as CCSS aligned. Also excellent for extension/practice activities.
My students loved this activity and the reward at the end.
My students found this resource engaging. It was a great addition to our probability unit. Since I used it with 4th graders, we did not use the 2nd page on ratios.
Great Resource
This was such a fun activity that helped them learn some math skills in probability.
