Thanksgiving Kitchen Rescue

Fractions Math Escape Room

It is Thanksgiving morning at Grandma June's house, and the whole family is coming for dinner at four o'clock. Oh no! Grandma's recipe cards got shuffled and smudged, and every station in her kitchen is locked until the fractions are fixed. Every lock you open puts one more dish on the dinner table. Fix the recipes and get dinner on the table in time!
