Recipe for Math

Each time you cook a meal or bake a cake, your math skills kick in. Calculations, estimations, measures and equations all simmer in your brain as you whisk up the perfect soufflé or create asparagus au gratin. Hone your skills in the art of food as you bring math into the limelight: make a pie chart of real pie, translate your recipes into scientific language, divide with fractions and decimals as you feed your friends with delectable creations, and so much more! If you enjoy math and love to eat, this is the perfect camp.

Campers participating this week will practice math in many forms while they learn cooking skills. Math in the context of cooking is easy and fun to absorb, and the hands-on activities make concepts clear.
