Mrs. Kelly's Sixth Grade Internet/Math Project

We can use Oreos® to help us learn about math! 
Using Oreos®, Mrs. Kelly's sixth graders and students across the world will stack Oreo® cookies as high as he or she can.  Students will be seeing how many Oreos they can stack before the Oreos® tumble.    Students may NOT use anything to stabilize the cookie and they may NOT adjust cookies as they stack. (i.e....once they have placed the cookie and their hand has left the cookie, they may NOT adjust that cookie again.)  Each student will have TWO attempts to stack Oreos® and will record the highest amount they were able to stack before tumbling.  Once the entire class has stacked their Oreos®, they will average all their results to turn in ONE class amount at TechnoSpud.  Seton sixth graders will also find their class' range, mode, median and mean to really put our math skills to the test.
