Menu Math

Life skills + Money Skills = ONE GREAT THING! Menu math is one of my favorite activities to use in the classroom. I started creating menu math worksheets because money skills are a large focus in middle school and many students have money IEP goals. I figured out a way I could use the same menu, but personalize the worksheets to meet all my student's needs. Menu math is SO easy to differentiate! How you ask?! Check out below how I used it in my classroom, created IEP goals for this, and made it engaging and fun my students asked me to make more! Differentiating Examples: Student A - identifying the foods on the menu and numbers in prices using words or AAC device. Student could also count the items on the worksheets. I also would just use the 1st number in the price (dollars only) and use manipulatives to have the student count and identify the number on AAC device. Student would also use cut out numbers and paste the prices under each picture instead of writing.
