We cooked at least once a week. My students were whizzes at fractions (which most kids find difficult to grasp) because of all the measuring they did while following recipes. The most fun unit we did was on ethnic foods. Each student had to bring a family favorite ethnic recipe and show the class how to prepare it. Would you believe one 11 year-old boy taught us to make baklava?! When I taught grade school, cooking was a very important part of my math curriculum. We cooked at least once a week.
