      I really like the real world concept with this lesson. There might be multicultural considerations (like never seeing or using a coupon), might need to expand on definitions.
  • Adaptations:
  • The lesson can be adapted for by allowing the use of calculators if the idea that the prices are added and subtracted is the only concept that is being emphasized. • Prices and discounts could be pre-determined and filled-in on worksheets.

  • Multicultural considerations: • In some cultures it may not be acceptable for children to request items while shopping. This is an issue that must be kept in the mind of the teacher while teaching in order to detour any conversation which might offend a student who is not permitted to make requests while in the store. • Some students may come from homes where coupons have never been used. In this case it would be necessary to briefly expand upon the definition of a coupon.

      you could do this with subtraction for advanced students or you could adapt it by giving them a sheet with problems already solved and they have to try to match their turns with all of the problems. (this would be good for memorizing)

      I didn't see a Common Core standard posted for this activity.

      You could adapt this for students wth special needs or ELL students by paiting them with at level students and giving them counters and ganizer mats to help them visualize addition.

      You can extend this lesson to 3rd or 4th grade by chaning the rules. FOr 3rd grade they can multiple instead of add and for 4th grade you can have them adding or subtracing fractions or decimals.
