Summary

So… just how much caffeine can you have before you end up in the ER?

  1. Optionally read [this article from *The Atlantic*](http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2013/01/how-much-caffeine-before-i-end-up-in-the-er/267129/) about caffeine and increased ER visits. Students will brainstorm questions about caffeine.
  2. Students look up the caffeine content of five different drinks and calculate how many one could have before it became dangerous.
  3. Analyze that data using any method you'd like. This is left open so that you can assign an appropriate task for your kids' abilities: bar graphs, measures of central tendency, equivalence with ratios, etc.
