Step 1: Watch the two supplied videos from Ms. Argenta. The videos can get found on the "Intro" page of WebQuest. They can also get found here:

Step 2: We will go shopping to pretend that we are about to cook dinner tonight for our family, like Anna! Please review Food Network's Magazine "The Big, Fun Kids Cookbook". Choose any recipe you would like to make for your family. The online cookbook can get found by clicking on the cookbook to the left.
Step 3: Grab your packet. Fill in your ingredients shopping list page based on the recipe you choose.
Step 4: Next, we will be searching the web to find the price of the required product we need. We also want to look for the price which indicates LESS or cheaper. Please choose at least two grocery stores to compare prices. The following links take you to the grocery page. However, you may want to search for your product individually. You are trying to find the lowest price for this particular assignment and activity. Again, write your findings into your packet.
PLEASE ALSO NOTE: BRAND AND QUANTITY WILL NOT MATTER OR APPLY TO THIS ASSIGNMENT!
