(our really exciting on-line Project)
How many oreos high can you stack?
Ashlyn stacked the maximum with 27 - Great job! It is not as easy as you think. Our minimum was 15. We had a range of 12, a mean of 21, and a mode of 25 with 5 students.
We compared our results with Mrs. Allen's class. A fifth grade class in Missouri.
Their maximum was higher with 29.
Their minimum was lower with 15.
Their mean was the same with 21.
Their mode was also at 21 with 4 students.
Some other activities included;
finding the price: Oreos cost $2.99 in Massachusetts and in Missouri. We
also found the value for different currencies to practice our
multiplication skills.
reading the package to gain information: nutrition, ingredients, fun facts.
