- Measuring ingredients using measuring cups
- Understanding fractions in measuring ingredients
- Calculating the total amount of ingredients needed
- Using a timer to keep track of baking time
- Dividing the cake into equal slices
Continued development can include:
- Exploring more advanced baking recipes that involve more complex measurements and fractions
- Learning about the concept of ratios by experimenting with different ingredient proportions
- Creating a budget for baking projects by estimating the cost of ingredients
- Further exploring the concept of fractions by discussing how the size of cake slices can vary based on the number of people and the size of the cake
- Researching and understanding the science behind baking, such as the role of different ingredients and the chemical reactions that occur during baking
