Key Features
Pack a bakery crate
Choose a sack, box, or jug and select Load crate. The chosen shipment moves to the crate and the gauge compares it with the order.
Four conversion rules
Work with pounds and ounces, kilograms and grams, gallons and quarts, and liters and milliliters. The one-unit rule is visible during each order.
Feedback and retries
A short or oversized shipment leaves the order open and resets Streak. Keep your points and try a different shipment, with no timer.
Eight orders per run
Every run covers all four conversions twice. Later orders include mixed units. Play again draws new amounts, and Best is saved in this browser when storage is available.
What is Bakery Dispatch?
Bakery Dispatch is a fourth grade measurement game. Bakery orders arrive in larger units, but the shipments are labeled in smaller units. Load the crate with a shipment that preserves the amount while changing the unit. The gauge shows how the chosen amount compares with the order; the artwork is not a measuring instrument. For example, an order for 2 lb 4 oz needs 36 oz. One pound is 16 ounces, so 2 × 16 + 4 = 36. A shipment with 32 oz is short because it leaves out the extra 4 oz.
Why play Bakery Dispatch?
- 1
See what stays the same
Changing the unit changes the number on the label, while the weight or capacity stays equal.
- 2
Practice multiplication and addition
Use the conversion factor for the larger units first and add the remainder when an order has mixed units.
- 3
Compare amounts
The gauge and feedback distinguish too little from too much, so a wrong choice gives you information for the next try.
- 4
Review both measurement systems
The same run uses metric and customary units, with a rule beside each order so learners can focus on how to use it.
