Chalk Talk: Teaching Math in the Kitchen
It has been said that cooking is a science. Well, you can’t have science without math. And so, it seems only appropriate that, if you want to teach your child math, you can start in your kitchen. Following recipes can involve many concepts alone: addition (how many ingredients have we added?), subtraction (there were a dozen eggs, two were used. How many left?), multiplication (doubling or tripling a recipe), division and fractions (when halving a recipe, for example). Younger children can stack measuring cups and put measuring spoons in size order. Older students can figure out the area and perimeter of baking sheets and pans. Time-telling and elapsed-time math can also be integrated (How long does a cake take to bake? What time will it be then?). Cooking can be a fun way to have kids use their math skills in a meaningful way.
