Summary: two kids sit down to share a batch of a dozen cookies, when the doorbell starts to ring. With each ring more kids come in and each kid gets fewer cookies. Then, at the end of the book, grandma comes in with more cookies.
Recommended Grade Level: 1-3
How to use the book: students act out sharing 12 and other numbers of cookies or other concrete objects with each other. Different numbers of students can come to a table, and students can see how quotients change with different divisors. Once this task is mastered with concrete objects, the same problems can be done using only written numbers.
NCTM content standard: Number and Operations
