Shopping-Unit Pricing

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Comparing unit prices of food products is a skill that learners will use for the rest of their lives. Here is a simple plan that provides practice calculating the unit price for various grocery store products. Use two jars with differing amounts of small blocks to demonstrate how the cost per unit differs. A worksheet is included, along with an answer key. Although written as a nutrition lesson, this can also be a math lesson that applies to the real world.
