 Great and fun way to introduce math topics September 6, 2008

I am so excited to use this book with my son. I home school my children and this book presents math topics such as measurements, radius, division, fractions and many others in a practical way. Children see math used in everyday life, in the kitchen! It isn't the only method we will use to teach these topics, but it certainly will add to the enjoyment of learning them!

I teach fourth and fifth grades, and I bought this book thinking that it would offer fun and different ways to incorporate math into everyday life activities like cooking and eating. I found it to be out of date, average at best and did not really require the use of very much math. It is really more of a children's cookbook than a math activity book. I was disappointed.
