Powerpoint Presentation: []

** Teachers: ** Penny Moring, Janet Watson, Aimee Condren, Grant Douglas. . ** Topic: ** Mothers Day Stall ** Subject Area: ** English and Mathematics ** Year level: ** 4 & 5 ** Introduction: ** Chidren love to cook and children love their Mothers! What better way to emerse students in the understanding of written concepts in the English strand and reinforcing addition, subtraction and multiplication in Mathematics than an authentic task of having a Mothers Day Cake Stall. ** Task Overview: ** The students will be put into groups and required to research cake recipes on the net using sites such as Taste.com. Once they have chosen the recipe, it will be displayed on the interactive white board and they will be required to write out the recipe, work out if they need to double or triple the recipe and then create a shopping list. From here the student will need to learn how to use a basic excel spread sheet and work out how much their ingredients will cost for them to stay in budget. The students will cook and decorate cakes. Posters will be made to be placed around the school for advertising of the cake stall. On the day of the cake stall students will set up stall and sell cakes that they have cooked. Throughout task students will be asked to take photos and keep a journal to reflect on their learning. They will then create a power point as a group to present at the next school assembly.
