Description
This is a 1 class MS Excel lab for a computer or math class. You can have the students explore the distribution of different color Skittles in class. This is a great mini-lab or half-day activity when you school ends up with a weird schedule day.
Tell them they can't eat till the Skittles till the end of class, or they will distort their numbers. Also make sure they don't throw them or shove them up their nose (Yes, stuck Skittles are hard to extract, ask me how I know..)
The goal of this lab is to practice excel, as well as programing the =SUM & =AVG function. They also build a simple clustered column chart. This is a fun way to build excel graphing skills.
This file has the full lab, and excel template you can use to produce the class graph.
I went to a bulk store and purchase a large 5 lb bag of skittles for this lab. You can use this with smaller bags, or vary the results with snack bags from Halloween assortments.
Easel Activity & Assessment
You can assign this as an activity for students devices in class, or as a make-up assignment from home.
The Assessment provides a great exit ticket!
