Description
Looking for a way to review data analysis and graphing skills without it being a bore? This Lucky Charms Cereal Data Analysis and Graphing Project is a fun activity to incorporate in March for St. Patrick's Day, but of course it works at any time of the year in a graphing unit or in a math-integrated unit.
Your students will smile when you whip out the box of Lucky Charms and tell them that they are to pretend they are the Quality Control Department at the Cereal Company! This activity is fun and easy to facilitate. It gives your middle-schoolers something fun to work with while practicing their data analysis, graphing and report-writing skills.
Simply read the situation to your class, roughly divide the cereal from one box of Lucky Charms into bowls - one for each group, and let the counting begin! You will need triple beam balances or another instrument to mass the cereal bits.
Have a class full of students with varying math abilities?! So do I! No worries because not only are the directions for this project editable in case you need to modify, but students will not be graphing by hand-- instead they will be using the website NCES Kid Zone Create-A-Graph to create 3 beautiful graphs that they will analyze. This website is easy to use and kids LOVE IT and can feel successful with it. Students will write a report to summarize their findings and this is where you can really differentiate the expections. Editable rubric is included.
Here is what is included:
- Teacher Notes
- PDF, editable Word Doc, and Google Slides versions of the Student Pages
- PDF, editable Excel Spreadsheet, and Google Sheets versions of the Data Table
- Sample Data Table
- Sample Graph
- Grading Rubric
