Description

This resource is included in PDF format for printing and in Google Slides™️ format for digital learning. This makes it useable with Google Classroom™️.

This real life math project is wonderful for your second grade learners! Students engage in a real life project aligning to running a bakery. Students will "bake" and "sell their goods" all the while practicing their addition strategies.

These activities can be used as a package, or in isolation. They work great as a math center, small-group lesson, early finisher activity, or partner activity.

Take a look at what you’ll find inside this math project:

TASK #1: Bakery Brainstorm

Students will start by naming their bakery. Students will then supply ideas for how to gather customers. Students will then "buy" poster paper to promote their business.

Skills: addition

TASK#2: Create Your Poster

Students will create a flashy poster to advertise for their business!

TASK #3: Start Baking

Students will "bake" and "frost" their cupcakes. They will figure out how many minutes it takes to finish baking their cupcakes. Students will then make more cupcakes and see how many cupcakes they have in all. Lastly, students will see how much time it takes to prepare the cake.
