As I'm sure many of you have heard from the excited buzz the children, the Grey Wolves' Diner will begin serving meals next Thursday, March 9th. Over the last few weeks, students have been busily preparing for this opening. Here are some of the exciting activities students have engaged in while creating this business:
- communicating through telephone and email with the Cottage Bakery and other local businesses about possibility of providing catering
- creating a punch card system for keeping track of meals purchased
- exploring sale price and costs and how this effects profits
- using graphic design software to create advertisements and a menu
- creating a detailed Excel spreadsheet with formulas that tabulate the sales and costs involved with a multitude of options including individual meals, unlimited cards, and 1x a week cards
- teaching other students how to use the spreadsheet
- communicating through email and in-person with families about the opening of the Diner
