What others say
Description
All of us have our favorite coffee shop. People go to coffee shops to visit with friends and grab a cup of their favorite coffee drink. Now is your chance for your students to open their very own coffee shop. They have an opportunity to create their own menu and more. Students will learn about the history of coffee, open a shop, and solve different math problems.
"There are some things you need to do so your shop will be a success. It requires you to do some research as you do your planning." These activities can be adapted for your class.

TEACHERS LIKE YOU HAVE SAID...
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I am a Family and Consumer Sciences teacher and am always looking for ways that my students can apply things that we learn in our cooking units, with what they are learning in other content areas. This resource was perfect! Thank you!"
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “We worked in this project before Christmas holidays and it was great. We have so much fun imagining our coffees and chocolates!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I'm currently using this as an optional PBL unit for students before we start a whole-class unit. My students have been engaged from start to finish and they are thoroughly enjoying the process. We are taking it one step farther and creating a diorama of what their coffee-shop would look like to present to the class.”
