About this title

Synopsis

From one of GEMS most well-known and successful authors, Math on the Menu interweaves mathematics with an imaginary Mexican restaurant. Students help the Rosada family start a restaurant by planning the menu, determining different combinations of ingredients, analyzing costs, setting prices, expanding into combination plates, and arranging tables annd chairs in a new location. Children use a wide variety of problem-solving skills. These taste- full activities put math learning in a real-world, multi-cultural, and delicious context.
