Cooking & Math:
Make chocolate chip cookies, chocolate
chip pan cookies or any other type
of cookie like in the books (or oatmeal raisin cookies).
As you make the cookies, have the children measure the
ingredients. Leave the chocolate chips or raisins out until the
end. Have the children count a certain amount of chocolate chips
or raisins and have them place them on each cookie.
For more of a challenge, say to them 1 + 4=__, 2 + 2=__, 3 + 2=__, 2 +
3=__, 4 + 1=__, 5 + 0=__, etc. You don't want to have to many
chocolate
chips or raisins in each cookie so be specific so they don't go
overboard.

Activity
To extend this activity, it can be a game or center. On lost of
3x5 inch index cards, write numbers, or addition problems, and/or
subtraction problems. Go as high as you want. Using felt,
make a large cookie or color a thick paper plate. Cut out small
pieces of black felt (or black construction paper and laminate them) to
make chocolate chips. Have the children do the math
problems. You can even use dice and have the kids count the
number of spots and place that many chocolate chips on the felt or
paper plate.
