Baking in Math Class!!

Today we had very fun math lessons! My grade 1s got to make peanut butter and then we divided celery stalks into fourths and crackers in half to eat it on! Wow they had fun!! To make the peanut butter place 1 cup peanuts and 1 tbsp oil in blender. Blend until smooth. Add more oil if to dry...they were also learning to read a recipe so I wrote it on the board and went over it with them...
A couple friends came in and made Apple Jack Cookies with my grade 2s! The students basically did it all even chopped the apple! Made for great enthusiasm! Then we ate them  during story...their lesson also was how to read a recipe...fun times!:)
