The students are participating in a nationwide OREO stacking challenge. The map below shows the 150 schools that are participating so far. It is very exciting to participate in this challenge, and use real data to apply to mathematical applications! Before we begin the challenge, I start by sharing the data that has been collected so far. Even before we begin, the students have an opportunity to analyze data! The challenge is pretty basic, but it has some pretty specific rules. The stack is a single stack of cookies created by using one hand, without reorganizing as you go. The students love participating in this, and it is a wonderful opportunity to make data and information meaningful and engaging.
