About this worksheet
Leo gets twenty dollars for his birthday and cannot buy everything he wants, which sets up this 4th grade economics cloze. Students fill 12 blanks in his story from a 15-word bank that holds three extras. The words build in order, from scarcity and limited to trade-off, benefit, and opportunity cost, as Leo picks a comic book over putting money in savings. A final prompt asks students to write their own sentence using opportunity cost. It covers C3 Framework D2.Eco.1.3-5 over 3 pages, and the answer key lists every blank and the three distractors.
