What color of jellybean do you find
most often in packages of jellybeans?
That was our main question for this yummy project.
We set out to find how many red, orange, yellow,
green,
purple, black, white and pink jellybeans we would find in each
package.
We were divided into four groups and each group received one bag of
jellybeans.
Below you will see our findings.

The children had a great time
counting, graphing, and working as
a team in seeing which color came up
most often. Oh,--yes
they were yummy to eat! We each took a bag home.

Our conclusion was that there are more yellow jelly beans in a
package and fewer green. We sampled the flavors and the least
favorite flavor is black.
