About the Author
I have to teach an edible math lesson?
I'm a special education major and I have to teach a lesson in class on either addition, subtraction, patterns, or anything very simple like that. It had to use edible manipulatives...anyone have any ideas? They would be greatly appreciated!
I remember my mom taught my little sister addition and subtraction with raisins. She would start out with (let say, 5) raisins in a row, and then my mom would say add 2. Then my sister would take two raisins from the box and put them in the row. For subtraction, she got to eat the number of raisins in the row that she had to subtract from the row. Then you could build up to bigger numbers, if you want. You could use grapes or nuts or anything to that effect instead of raisins, too. Just beware of the choking hazards, depending on the ages of the kids you're teaching, and allergies too. That's a cool major you have! Good luck!
