Candy Corn Math

Everyone in our house loves candy corn! It doesn't help that we're getting free candy corn at cvs. :) So tonight we made some educational use out of the Harvest Mix I picked up at cvs the other day.

First Ella worked on sorting the candy. This was easy.

Then we talked about which there was the most and least of, and guessed how many were in each cup. After that Ella made a bar graph of her candy corn.

And the cute boy for good measure.

After graphing we worked on some simple patterns. ABCABC and ABAB.

Ella had a lot of fun doing these activities, and especially getting to eat a few pieces at the end. ;)
