In this special multi-day Math Missions series, students will become Thanksgiving Feast Planners — using critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity to “host” a Thanksgiving dinner for their guests. Each session focuses on a different math skill: Budgeting and cost comparison for groceries Fractions and scaling recipes for a set number of guests Measurement conversions for ingredients Time management and sequencing to plan the cooking schedule Data organization and presentation to build a menu and shopping list By the end, students will “present” their feast plan — complete with a menu, itemized shopping list, and budget report — ready to impress their virtual dinner guests! This class brings math to life through meaningful, practical application with a Thanksgiving twist.
