Math Lab Popcorn Project

The purpose of our project was to learn about math standards with a real world application.  We also got to eat and share a lot of popcorn!

We learned how to use unit rates to find the cost of the ingredients for each batch, how to convert measurements, and how to find the mean, median, and mode of the times and measurements we recorded for each batch of popcorn we made.

Thank you Ms. Rondeau for letting us use the school's popcorn machine.

Thank you to Mrs. Dale for helping us get the popcorn machine from the concession stand.

Thank you to Mrs. Bell & Mrs. Forrest for help getting the ingredients.

Thank you to all the school staff members who taste-tested our popped popcorn.
