MATH PROJECT

Mini Math Project –

Due Friday, February 7

You are to use your knowledge of fractions with your cooking skills!

1.    Decide on what you would like to make to share with the class.

2.    Your recipe needs to include at least 3 fractions: example: ½ tsp. baking powder, 3½ cups of flour, and 2¾ cups of sugar.  Of course you will need other ingredients, but they don’t have to be fractions.

*** You can double your ingredients if needed***

3.    You need to write your recipe on an index card and highlight 3 fractions that you used.

4.    Bring your finished product and your recipe to school. You will present your recipe to the class and share your goodies.

**This will count as a major test grade. This is not a homework grade! It is a test grade!!!!!

** DO NOT get any help with measuring out your ingredients. You certainly may get help with operating the stove or oven. Make sure a parent is supervising you during that part of the cooking.

You need enough for 23 people!
