Lesson Procedure
Initiation (hook to lesson, explanation of objectives, engage students): 1. Do now: Write on the board: How do bakers know how much money to charge for one cookie? 2. Read the lesson objective to the students: At the end of the period, students will be able to use shopfromhome.com to price out a grocery list. 3. Ask student to share their Do now answers.
Timing: 5 minutes Performance Tasks: 1. Hand students a chocolate chip cookie recipe and a food cost sheet. 2. Ask students to go to shopfromhome.com 3. Direct students to write down all of the ingredients on the food cost sheet. 4. Show students the price/unit for flour. 5. Have students gather all of the prices for the recipe. 6. Students should then determine the amount of product needed for each food item and do the math calculation to find the price point per unit.
Development of Lesson: On the SMARTboard, show the students the shopfromhome.com website. Point out the price per unit. Ask students how much flour do you need for the recipe? How is the flour being sold at shopfromhome? by pound? by ounce? Look at your equivalent sheets. How can you make your recipe match the way the flour is sold at shopfromhome.com? Travel from student to student to make sure that each student is able to find the prices for each ingredient. If students are unable to finish the math during class, they will finish it for homework. Timing: 30 minutes Closure: Exit slip: Write down three questions you have about finding the cost of a recipe. If you have no questions, write down three things that you will remember for tomorrow. Timing: 5 minutes
Assessment Strategies: Teacher will use the Do now as a type of pretest to find out how much students know about recipe costing. Teacher will monitor students while they are on the computer finding the prices of the ingredients. Students will complete the food cost sheet and turn it into the teach as formative assessment. Teacher will use the exit slip as a means of checking for understanding.
