Diner Decisions

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is based on the fictional “Rudy’s Diner” and includes both lunch and dinner menu items. Students answer questions about the menu’s hours, types of meals served, vegetarian options, and meal structure. The focus shifts from calculations to menu interpretation and comprehension. It ends with a creative question asking students to choose a meal and total the cost.

This worksheet strengthens critical reading and comprehension by encouraging students to pull information from structured text. It helps them develop the ability to extract and evaluate options, an important real-life skill. The final open-ended question promotes decision-making and cost estimation. Altogether, the task improves attention to detail and textual analysis.
