Classroom Spotlight: Some Success from September 2025
Mrs. Duncan and Ms. Lambert's Desk
Our 6th grade students explored ratios and proportional reasoning through the Candy Ratio Project today. The students used fun-size bags of M&Ms and Skittles, to practice sorting, counting, and comparing candy colors to create ratios, equivalent ratios, and unit rates. This hands-on activity helps make abstract math concepts engaging, visual, and fun!
