The Scientific Method: M & M Lab

QUESTION: Which color of M&M is the most common?

HYPOTHESIS: I believe ___ is the most common color of M&M because _____________.

PROCEDURE: 1. Open the bag of M&M’s. 2. Count & record the number of M&M’s for each color. 3. Graph your results.

DATA: M&M Color: Number: Red Blue Green Yellow Orange Brown

Create a bar graph to display your results. Be sure to label the axes of your graph.

DATA ANALYSIS: 1. Which color is the most common? 2. Which color is the least common?

VOCABULARY: Hypothesis Common

CONCLUSION: Be sure to look back at your original question. Be sure to use complete sentences. Be sure to USE & HIGHLIGHT your vocabulary words in your conclusion.

Sample vs. Population What is a sample? The data YOU collected is an example of a sample. To get better data, we have to combine our data!

Collective DATA: M&M Color: Number: Red Blue Green Yellow Orange Brown

Create a bar graph to display our CLASS results. Be sure to label the axes of your graph!

Collective DATA ANALYSIS: 1. Which color is the most common now? 2. Which color is the least common now? 3. Was this data different from your sample’s results?

Final Conclusion 1. What do you think this means? 2. What should we learn from this?
