[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a good activity, among many others, for reinforcing math skills. My 4th grader sailed through fractions because he’s been cooking and baking for years with me. An added bonus is teaching life skills. That same 4th grader is perfectly comfortable cooking dinner or baking a cake on his own. [/quote] I meant to add, it’s not meant to be a one off lesson I think, but something that if you do regularly will make them very comfortable with fractions. We double or triple recipes fairly often so there’s a lot of fraction work. [/quote]
