All of the resources and tried and tested in real classrooms, catalysing excellent outcomes. The resources are suitable for students across lower KS2, having being used successfully in the past with both year 3 and year 4 children.
There are three photocopiable worksheets which are created by Franklin Watts for the title 'Espresso Ideas Box: Chocolate'. They include a template for a collage, a questionnaire for a chocolate factory visit and a writing frame for a diary of a day out. The activities stand alone, but using them in conjunction with the book will offer a more complete learning experience.
This was written for an SEN group of year 9s but could also be used for KS3. This is the first resource I have shared and I would welcome feedback :-) It starts off with conservation of mass and goes on to balancing equations. It is very basic but quite fun so bits could be used as starters or plenaries. I gave students chocolate and smarties to arrange but that is not essential.
I was looking for a presentation about Fair Trade chocolate, but really struggled. I found a great presentation about Fair Trade bananas and tweaked it. Hope this helps you!
