Scientific Method – M&M’s Activity – Graphing Experiment and Lesson

This colorful activity introduces students to both the scientific method and data analysis through hands-on exploration of M&M distributions.

Using a familiar snack, students will form a hypothesis about which candy colors occur most frequently. Clear procedures guide your students to sort, count, and record M&M colors from multiple sample packs. Their results tables lead to graphing skills as data is compiled and percentages calculated.

Students learn by doing as they test hypotheses, control variables, and analyze trends. Post-lab reflection questions help internalize the purpose and cognitive skills nurtured. The thorough companion lesson defines each component of the method. Examples illustrate how curiosity and evidence-based thinking benefit discovery. This multi-sensory lab motivates learners across disciplines through discovery fueled by their own observations. After participating, students emerge with a strengthened understanding of systematic investigation and interpretation of quantitative results.

Additionally, this resource includes my complete lesson on the scientific method. The lesson will teach your students what the scientific method is as well as how it can be carried out to solve problems and get answers to questions. You, as their teacher, will appreciate how the included lesson reinforces each stage of the scientific process, from questioning to discussing conclusions.
