Students each get a digital copy of the activity. There is a PDF grocery store flyer linked in the Google Slides for them to use to find the prices. They need to search the flyer for the items that are already chosen. They will need to write the cost next to it and figure out the total cost for each category. Depending on the students and ability levels, I may allow them to use calculators for this. For higher students, I make them add the total cost for each category to find the total cost of t

You'll need to have grocery store weekly circulars for this activity. I save the ones I get in the mail each week and bring them to school so I always have a stockpile.

Students need to use a grocery store flyer to shop for an entire Thanksgiving meal. Each category has pictures straight from the grocery store flyer. I used Market Basket this week, but almost all of these items are also for sale in Shaws and Stop & Shop, as well. I made it a Word document, so you can easily replace the images if you want! I've also included a link to a PDF of the flyer on the last page of the document. Just a heads up, but Market Basket does have a Beer and Wine section i

Students go from station to station to practice their money skills. At each station, students get a new wallet. First, they have to count the money in their wallet. Then, they have to determine how much change they will get back. There are three levels of stations for this activity: stations for dollar amounts only, dollars and/or coins to $20, and dollars and coins to $100. I have included a sheet with the money for each station. There is an answer key for every set of 10 stations. Sometimes,

I use this as an independent work station for my students to practice their money skills. Their job is to take any card, select the appropriate coins and/or bills, and insert them all into an envelope for checking later. To make this accessible for my lowest students, they have a coin amounts sheet, available in this download, to help them work on coin identification and amounts. I have play money that I use, but I have included money that you can print out if needed. Print as many sheets as

Students use the attached images from a weekly flyer to choose gifts for family/friends. They have a budget of $200 and must buy 6 items.

For my students who are better at math, I use this instead of the store circular cut and paste. I like to use this activity for independent work when I unexpectedly have to stop teaching (need to talk to someone, handle a behavior, etc.). This activity works best with the larger stores, such as home improvement stores and department stores. I have a separate activity that I use for the grocery store flyers.

This activity works best with the weekly circulars I get in the mail every week. The larger stores, such as home improvement stores and department stores, work best with the price ranges.
