The NJ Family Engagement Hub and The Center for Family Math invite you to the first session in a 3-part webinar series exploring the math of food. In this interactive kickoff webinar, we’ll discover how mathematical ideas like fractions, ratios, data, and geometry naturally come to life through cooking, sharing meals, and family food traditions across cultures. Participants will explore how food can be a powerful and joyful entry point for making math meaningful, hands-on, and deeply connected to lived experience.
Special guests Rosemary Miller, Breana Marquez, and Carla Pineda from PBS SoCal will share insights from their YouTube series, Cooking Counts. This engaging cooking show blends early math concepts with practical, family-friendly recipes designed for busy parents and hungry little ones. Rosemary, Breana and Carla will highlight how everyday moments in the kitchen can spark early math thinking and strengthen family engagement through food.
Join us for an inspiring conversation that connects math, culture, and cuisine—because when we cook together, math truly counts!
