There is something about combining candy with math that makes math a little more enticing for kids. My boys absolutely LOVE candy corn, so I decided to make a math activity that incorporated this fall favorite.
Supplies:
* 1 package of mixed candy corn (I grabbed the wrong one at the store, but we made it work anyway)
* Candy Corn Tasting Math Activity Worksheet
Directions:
1. Print out the Candy Corn Tasting Math Activity Worksheet here.
2. Give your child a handful of mixed candy corn and have them determine the fractions of each kind and graph.
There are also some writing activities included as well.
