Uired.

a group, you will choose an answer and then a recorder will
write the answer on their whiteboard. Keep you answer a
secret. When I say so, all of the groups will hold their answers
up at the same time. Im going to reveal the answer and Miss
Cardamone is going to keep score on the whiteboard. Prize is a
cantaloupe that the winning group will eat alongside their
omelette tomorrow.
Students: Thumbs up to check for understanding.
Students gather in their kitchen groups. Teacher asks group to
choose a recorder. Recorder comes to the front of the class to
grab a whiteboard and marker.
Using the grocery store flyer, teacher asks questions such as:
What costs more this week, a head of lettuce or four
cucumbers?
A: Safeway: 4 long English cucumbers $5, red or green lettuce
$1.99 each
Warmup round.
What costs more this week, 3 boxes of Kelloggs mini
wheats or a carton of 12 eggs and 375 g of bacon?
A: Safeway: 3 Kelloggs cereal $9.99 and bacon $4.49+12 eggs
$2.64=$7.13
Does this surprise you?
Eating breakfast at home is definitely cheaper than eating out a
lot of people get breakfast to go to save time, but it probably
doesnt take any more time to pour cereal than it does to wait
in the drive-through, plus it is healthier.
What costs more this week, Delissio frozen pizza or
Maruchan Yakisoba?
A: Safeway: pizza $4.44, noodles $1.99
Does this surprise you?
Noodles are the cheapest, but if you eat it often for meals it is
not very complete. You can make it more balanced by adding
leftover meat or frozen veggies. You can do the same with
macaroni and cheese. You can serve pizza for dinner and not
spend nearly as much if you get take and bake.
What costs more this week, Save-On Foods rotisserie
chicken or 4-piece chicken and fries at KFC?
A: KFC 4 piece chicken and individual fries $6.99. Save-On
Foods rotisserie chicken $9.99.
Does this surprise you?
The rotisserie chicken can be purchased at the store and is
healthier than picking up fried chicken. Frozen fries at Safeway
this week are $3, or pick up potato wedges at the store.
What costs more this week, Save-On Foods Sundia cut
fruit, 217 ml, or a mini watermelon?
A: Save-on Foods: Sundia cut fruit 2/$3. Mini watermelon,
seedless, $3.99 each.
Does this surprise you?
The seedless mini watermelon costs .99 more BUT it has more
servings than two. Sometimes you pay for convenience. Fruit
salads, for example, at the deli cost a lot more than buying
your own cantaloupe and oranges, and cutting them up

yourself.
Most of the time prepackaged foods cost more.
What costs more this week, Save-On Foods Western
Family Instant Oatmeal or Kelloggs Pop-tarts?
A: Save-on Foods: Western Family Instant Oatmeal 2/$5.
Kelloggs pop-tars 2/$6.
Does this surprise you?
Store brands often save money. Both are breakfast foods and
dont take a lot of time to prepare but the healthier option costs
less. Also, you get more. 10 packages of oatmeal vs 8 Poptarts.
Ways to make this healthier and save even more money?
Quick oats, not instant. Watch for maple and brown sugar
may have a lot of sugar, artificial sweeteners.
What costs more this week, Save-On Foods Nature
Valley granola bars or Doritos?
A: Save-on Foods: Nature Valley granola bars $2.50. Doritos
$3.33.
Does this surprise you?
The healthier choice is sometimes the least expensive one.
Ways to make this healthier and save even more money?
Make your own granola bars! Often, no cooking required.

Learning Activity
#3

Group work so struggling students are not left on their own

Images (not words) projected on SMARTBoard for those who
struggle comprehending verbal instruction.
Teacher: The idea of the game is to get an idea of how prices
vary. When you are looking at one serving, it might not seem
like much, but when you look at feeding a variety of meals and
snacks to a family over a week, you can see that it can really
add up. By choosing some of the less expensive items you can
have the money to spend on some of your more expensive
foods.
Teacher: In your kitchen groups, talk about some ways you can
get the most value for your food dollars. Have two minutes to
chat, then we will go around the room and share a tip that
helps you get the most for your money.
Students think-pair-share
make a shopping list so dont have to keep making trips, buy
only what you need
coupons/BOGO deals
shop alone so wont be tempted to buy what others want
buy in bulk
store brands
watch for errors during check out
convenience vs. homemade
