Mic Drop Maths is a mathematics podcast for 5th graders based on the VA Standards of Learning. Each episode addresses one standard and is broken into segments including concept, real-world application, math history, literature connections, misconceptions, and more! There is music, sound effects, jokes, and student voice in each engaging and entertaining episode.
This resource involves students completing a series of four graphs representing how many M&M's they predict are in fun size and small bags of M&M's, and the actual number that are present. After collecting data and graphing the results, students will place the data on stem and leaf plots. Next, students will determine the mean, mode, and median for each set of data, and decide which measure of center is most accurate for describing the number of M&M's in the bag. Lastly, students will compare the amount of M&Ms in the fun size bag to those in the small bag.
