A great way to work on language is by baking or cooking something. We can cover a lot of different goals with this activity. Here is the following goals we can focus on during this activity:

1. Following 1-3 step directions

2. Vocabulary what type of food, spices and equipment is used in the recipe

3. Using complete sentences when talking about what you are doing (I am pouring the milk into the bowl) While you are doing this you are using present tense or present progressing ing verbs pour or pouring.

4. Following the recipe working on sequencing, talk about what happened first, second, third, fourth etc. Also you can use other temporal concepts, such as first, next, before, after.

5. Also have your child write out what they did sequentially. I made brownies today. The first thing I did was open he box of mix. Next I poured the mix into the bowl.

6. You can also work on past tense as you talk about what you did orally and it written form. I poured the mill into the bowl, I mixed the batter.

7. Also address wh questions while making the recipe. What did we make, who made it with us, why did you mix the brownie mix, why did you use cookie cutters, when did you pour the milk in.

ENJOY THIS FUN ACTIVITY!!
