Navigating the Grocery Store | Life Skills Unit for Special Education & Transition

Teach real grocery shopping skills with this 47-page, print-and-go life skills unit for teens and young adults in transition and special education programs. Written at about a 5th-grade reading level with short sentences and plain words.

7 lessons: store layout, finding items, grocery vs. convenience stores, checkout impulse buys, store brand vs. name brand, conventional vs. organic, and unit price math.

Each lesson includes a short reading, key words, visuals, a practice activity, a quick check quiz, and a Real-World Shopping Task to complete in a real store with staff.

Also included: a Picture Guide that matches store section names to foods learners know (pop, chips, cereal), cut-out picture cards, a unit review, a final shopping project with budget and rubric, a certificate, and a full answer key.

Original illustrations. Example prices only. No real stores, brands, or logos. Great for Pre-ETS, transition, and CBI.
