Why Use Recipe Cards for Functional Academics?

Reading a recipe requires students to combine functional reading and functional math skills in an everyday context.

Students must locate specific information, interpret measurements and quantities, understand directions, identify tools and ingredients, and use details from the recipe to answer questions.

This makes the activities useful for functional reading, functional literacy, functional math curriculum, consumer math curriculum, and life skills curriculum while giving students repeated practice with practical everyday material.

Recipe cards provide an authentic way to connect academic skills with daily living skills and independent living skills. Students practice reading real-world information and applying math skills in the type of everyday situation they may encounter outside the classroom.
