Math fun with cookies! #GiftedMath

 

Gifted was just released on Blu-ray this week. In honor of the release, I will be sharing some fun math activity sheets all week long!

Baking is all about math, just think about it.  You use fractions when measuring, doubling batches is multiplication and so much more!  One for you and one for me! Snacks are a great way to share your math skills! Partner with one of your littles to create scrumptious cookies to share with your family and friends.

Check out this fun worksheet to involve math in your baking!

But Frank and Mary’s happy life together is threatened when Mary’s mathematical abilities come to the attention of her overbearing grandmother (Lindsay Duncan) – who has other plans for the girl. You’ll love every moment of this “deeply satisfying” (Edward Douglas, Film Journal International) film, also starring Jenny Slate and OSCAR® Winner Octavia Spencer*.
