Motivate students with math lessons based on real life problem-solving situations with food. Even the most hard to manage students are interested in the lesson when something worthwhile is being asked, solved, and eaten!

This book includes 93 lessons. The problem-solving activities provide reinforcement in the following math areas:

  • patterning
  • addition & subtraction
  • multiplication & division
  • fractions
  • measurement
  • geometry
  • money
  • time
  • graphing
  • estimation

Each activity lists the food item(s) you will need to solve the problem presented on the page. An activity may be completed individually, as a group, or as a class endeavor. Challenge activities which extend the problem-solving strategies are provided at the bottom of the student activity pages.

The methods used in this book help children make sense of mathematical concepts by allowing them to manipulate food items in order to solve problems. Careful observation of students as they work through the problem-solving process provides the teacher with a clearer picture of their mathematical thinking processes.

The activities can be assigned at specific times of the year, or used on a regular basis as extensions or reinforcement pages in an existing math program.

Testimonials

I am a stay at home mom who values education very much, and these resources have been able to help me start my child's education early in order to give her a head start before she even enters into school. - Heather L.

The resources I received will help me tremendously with reading skills. I was amazed at how quickly I received my order. - Annette H.

My son needed some additional work with his fine motor skills to prepare him for Kindergarten next year. We work out of the books I ordered. He does his "homework" when my older son is completing his after school. He loves it! It makes him feel like a big boy. I was amazed that my order arrived two days after I placed it, especially because it was the Holiday season. - Dawn M.

I purchased the full color Kindergarten file folder games, and my students love them. We use them daily during our literacy groups. Your service was great! - Cindy M.

They provide a variety of ways to reach different students and allow me to vary my activities year-to-year. - Staci M.

I have used all the materials with my Kdg. class and found them to be so appropriate. The children enjoy them. - Jennifer C.
