Heart Challenge

Each group of students was given a cup of candy hearts and a graph.  The only conundrum was...  the graph only went up to 10 and there were obviously more than 10 candy hearts.  What to do?  Each team came up with an interesting way of solving the problem.   Next, the students had to alter the graph to accommodate their large numbers.  One group decided to skip count by 5's and then all the information would fit on one graph!  Interesting things we found out:  Every group had WAY more purple hearts than any other color.  The color with the fewest amount in each group was green.
