Making Salads with Math!

What makes a salad, a salad? Does it have to have lettuce? Could it have a bean or corn base? This book broadens readers’ understanding of just what this healthy staple can be made of while using the four recipes as a jumping off point to practice math skills. Word problems based on each recipe ask readers to use topics from the classroom and bring them to the kitchen, including measuring, addition, subtraction, and more. Readers can check their work using a concluding answer key, and try out their new recipes on friends and family.
