We were learning about M&M stacking. The world record for M&M stacking is five, a British engineer got five and one of the Maori all blacks got five. The record for M&M stacking in the science elective is three. Vinny got three and Tyran got three. Before we did M&M stacking we stacked pebbles, the most I got there was five.
I found it easy to get two stacks of two but that was the most I got apart from one stack of three that lasted about two seconds. I figured out that the red and the orange M&Ms stuck well together with the Ms facing each other.
It sounds like it would be easy to stack M&Ms but it is actually really hard. It is kind of like trying to stack sticky soccer balls. I could get two stacks of two but as soon as I tried to add one more to the stack it toppled over.
Next time I will try to find the center of the M&Ms gravity so that it will balance better.
