Candy Heart Math

As we teach Probability to young elementary school students, it's great when we can be creative with our manipulatives and keep it fun! I liked this idea from, The First Grade Parade because it uses Candy hearts as manipulatives for the activity about Probability. I think it's especially cool since Valentine's Day is just around the corner.
Her instructions go like this:
Set Up
Step 1. Place a set of conversation hearts in a brown paper bag.
Step 2. Have a bag for each table.In each bag, add a different assortment of colored hearts, making sure that there are A LOT of one particular color.
Teacher's example: "in one bag she put 12 pink, 2 purple, 1 white, 1 green, and 3 yellow hearts. The kids had to reach inside the bag…without looking…and pull out a heart {10 different times}." 
"On the corresponding sheet, the kids had to tally the color they pulled." 
"If they pulled out a pink heart, they had to put a tally inside the heart labeled pink."
"After each person at their table had a turn to pull 10 different hearts, I had the kids empty their bags so they could see what was inside and then they wrote about it."

She even has printables available of this worksheet below that goes along with the activity! How cool is that!
