Skittle Radiometric Decay Half-life Lab
Did you know you can use Skittles candy to demonstrate absolute dating and radiometric decay! Buy a 1-4 lb bag at your local bulk warehouse store for savings. This lab is a great way to show how isotopes decay by shaking a plate full of random skittles. Students use Skittles to observe "Isotopes" decay over each half life. At the end of the lab (and only IF they have done all their work) they can enjoy their "daughter products". Skittles were used because they are durable, hypoallergenic, and th

Skittle Statistics MS Excel Mini-Lab
This is a 1 class MS Excel lab for a computer or math class. You can have the students explore the distribution of different color Skittles in class. This is a great mini-lab or half-day activity when you school ends up with a weird schedule day. Tell them they can't eat till the Skittles till the end of class, or they will distort their numbers. Also make sure they don't throw them or shove them up their nose (Yes, stuck Skittles are hard to extract, ask me how I know..)The goal of this lab is
