This is an activity worksheet/labsheet to use when teaching science process skills. It is for use when teaching about "predicting". The teacher passes out a small cup of M & Ms. The instructions are on the labsheet. The student may eat the M & Ms after completing the activity worksheet/labsheet. Of course, it is important that the teacher checks to determine if anyone in the class has a food allergy to chocolate or other ingredients in the candy. This activity could also be modified to use

This is a base-ten hands-on activity that correlates with Common Core math standards. Students will complete the activity in cooperative groups. Each student will be given a bag of items. The items can be cotton balls, toothpicks, clothespins, math manipulatives of any kinds, etc., and the bags will have varying amounts in them. Students will count the items, records the amount on their sheet, and draw the amount using base-ten representations. Good luck!
