We had a fantastic time becoming bakers and shopkeepers.  First, we carefully measured ingredients using cups to make our own delicious cookies, learning about quantity and measurement as we mixed, shared, rolled and baked. The next day, when the cookies had cooled we had a busy shop in the classroom where the children took turns being customers and shopkeepers. They practised counting money, working out and giving the correct change, developing their maths skills through real-life experiences before enjoying their cookies for snack. It was great fun – full of learning, teamwork and tasty treats!
