Raise your hand if you love cookies! I sure do, they’re my favorite! Have you ever had a cookie-themed day with your students? Today I’m sharing some Cookie Taste Test Activities you can do to bring in the science and writing for the day.
THIS ACTIVITY WORKS WELL WITH
Taste Testing and the 5 Senses – Science, Writing and Math
The first activity is we’re going to describe cookies. Grab a pack of chocolate chip cookies from the store and give one to each student. Depending on your class I made 2 different printables for this activity.
The first is they can draw and or write in the boxes to describe their cookie when tasting it. Or you can bring in the 5 senses on option 2 and have them describe their cookie using the 5 senses, writing in their answer in a sentence.
Cookie Taste Test
And our second cookie tasting activity also has 2 options.
We’re bringing math into this one! The first option is to find out what type of cookie is the class’s favorite. This one is a great option if you can’t actually have food in the classroom.
The cookie options are chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter cookies, sugar cookies, and oatmeal cookies. You’ll have each of the students ask their classmates which cookie is their favorite.
Depending on their answer they will fill in the matching box on the graph using the correct color. In the end, they can total up the columns and write in the numbers to determine which cookie is the class favorite!
And the second option is to pick up 3 bags of cookies from the store. You’ll want to grab a sandwich cookie, an animal cookie and a chocolate chip cookie. Start by giving each student one of each of the cookies and decide which one they like the best.
Next, you’ll have each of the students ask their classmates which cookie is their favorite. Depending on their answer they will fill in the matching box on the graph using the correct color. In the end, they can total up the columns and write in the numbers to determine which cookie is the class favorite!
Lots of great learning going on in these activities with a yummy twist!
