- Counted the number of cookies needed for the recipe
- Measured the ingredients using measuring cups and spoons
- Followed the recipe's instructions for baking time and temperature
- Divided the dough into equal portions to make the cookies
- Counted the number of cookies baked
- Used a timer to keep track of the baking time
- Estimated the number of cookies that could be made with the remaining dough
For continued development, the child can:
- Practice measuring ingredients for other recipes
- Explore different cookie recipes and compare the measurements and baking times
- Create a chart or graph to track the number of cookies baked over time
- Experiment with different shapes and sizes of cookies to explore concepts of area and perimeter
- Practice dividing the dough into different fractions to make cookies of different sizes
