Jellybean Math!

Posted in Spring

Oh the fun!  Today we did math with jellybeans!

First we estimated how many were in the bowl!

Hannah guessed 100.

Emily guessed 1000.

Mommy guessed 157.

We counted...

Grand total jelly beans in 1 bag: 161.

As we counted, I layed them out in rows of 10's. So after we counted them, we counted the jellybeans by 10's.

Then, we sorted them. Caleb even had fun with this portion of the lesson!

We found which color had the most in our bag: orange.

We found which color had the least amount: white and purple tied for least.

Then, of course, we taste tested a few for good measure!
