Planning a Holiday Meal
Thanksgiving dinner will be served at your home this
year for ten people. Using the local
supermarket advertisements, plan the meal’s cost using the following menu and
serving recommendations. Calculate the quantity needed. Remember you need to round up to the next
amount since you need enough food for everyone.
Calculate the cost of each item by multiplying the quantity by the cost.
Do all of your calculations in the space provided and circle your answer.
Serving recommendations:
— Turkey: 1 pound per person
— Gravy: 3 oz. per person
— Stuffing: 1 oz. per person
— Green Beans: 3 oz. per person
— Potatoes: 1/2 lb. per person
— Corn: 3 oz. per person
— Rolls: 1 per person
— Butter: 1 tsp. per person (96 tsp. in 1 lb. of butter)
— Cranberry sauce: 14 oz. can has 5 servings
— Pumpkin Pie: a 9-inch pie can be cut into 8 slices
Transfer your quantity and cost calculations to the “Planning a Holiday Dinner” table.
Calculate the total cost of the meal by adding up all of the items to be purchased in the “Planning a Holiday Dinner” table. Write the total cost in the table.
Write a check for the total cost of the meal.
Cut out a picture of each item, if available, with the price from your grocery advertisement. Using a piece of construction paper, decorate your project with these pictures. Cut out the check and attach it your project along with the “Planning a Holiday Dinner” table. You may create this project in a book format or as a poster. When writing the check, the dollar amount is in word form, the cents are written as a number of cents over a hundred. For example. $135.45, is written as One Hundred Thirty Five 45/100 with a line going through the rest of the space.
Happy Thanksgiving!
