Introduction

Digital Literacy Class: We are going to learn about so many incredible ways to be creative, collaborative, and to communicate. We will focus on computer skills and applications. Some topics you already know about, and you will know better, and other topics and applications will be new to you! Either way, we will work together to find the ones you are able to use best. This class consists of Project-Based-Learning. You will be given plenty of time to learn the skills and applications that you will use for a lifetime. I hope you enjoy the material we will cover. - Mr. S

03/04 (SYNCH): PMB Step 6 - Grocery Day [Weekly Menu]

Objective: To plan a weekly meal menu and shop for items on the list. To identify prices and differences in the quality of different items. To be able to accurately create a personal menu, shopping list, and translate your purchases into an online budget form for evaluation.


Steps:
1. Complete Weekly Menu Form - Get it Approved.
2. Complete Grocery List Based on Menu Choices - Get it Approved.
3. Shop online for items on Grocery List and compare quality and prices.
4. Total your Grocery Spending and Enter All Items on Shopping List in Budget Online (PMB)
5. Share your menu and list with the class during final presentations.

Please use the handout to plan your menu for a week. I would like you to plan at least 2 dinners for 2 people, and a family dinner (6 people or more) for the weekend sometime. It can be breakfast, lunch, or dinner, but include anything you would normally serve. Once your menu is complete, make a grocery list. In addition to groceries, there is a list of other items (BELOW) that you will need to keep at your home. Detergent, soap, etc. You may also include any items you might actually use regularly to your shopping list.

Additional Items to Buy:  Laundry Detergent, Soap, Shampoo, Deodorant, a Mop, a Broom, All-Purpose Cleaner, Light Bulbs, Dish Soap, 3 2-Liter Bottles of Soda (ie. Coca Cola, Pepsi, etc.), Band-Aids, Cold Medicine, and a Bucket, Tylenol or Advil, Batteries and a Flashlight, a Basic Tool Set, a Wiffle Ball Bat Set, and M&M's.  
 
Finally, go to the website below and price everything you will need. You may need to make substitutions, but you will get a good general idea of prices for your weekly shopping trip. You will enter these figures on your monthly budget (remember that this sheet and shopping list is only for one week) when you are finished as actual costs.

Here are a couple of places to shop. You may also look for other online grocery stores, pharmacies or other providers. They must list individual item pricing and you need to figure out delivery if you do not have one of the stores local to your new apartment. (Example: You can price things at Target.com, but you must figure out shipping costs if you do not have a Target store locally. You must also figure out how to get your purchases home if you do not have a car.)

YOU MUST ADD EVERY ITEM ON YOUR SHOPPING LIST TO THE PERSONAL SHOPPING LIST PAGE OF YOUR DATA SHEET ON THE FAMILY MONTHLY BUDGET. MAKE SURE YOU CREATE AREA FOR YOUR GROCERY SHOPPING FROM THE SHOPPING LIST YOU COMPLETED FOR YOUR MOVING DAY!
