When I taught third grade years ago at another school, kids would ask me later, “Mrs. Reyes, do you still cook in your classroom?” The students who asked, as well as the student who inspired the idea, graduated from high school last year. It’s time to renew the cooking in my classroom custom. Even students who weren’t in my homeroom knew about this memory-making tradition. We will make real world connections with adding fractions, measuring, and following directions when we bake, mix, and cook. We can show the connections with tough math (like adding and subtracting as well as finding equivalent fractions) and food. For example, if our recipe asks for a half cup of flour, what measuring tools can we use to make that? Can I use two quarter cups? Why is using tablespoons or teaspoons not ideal? Stuck with an equivalent fraction? See what could work using the Fraction Stax model! Wondering how the rest of the world measures? Have a recipe that asks for ounces or grams and need to measure metrically? Use the cups that show both standard and metric systems. We will mix using measuring cups and spoons and bake away in our own countertop oven. Learning about fractions will come to life!
