Lessons take on sweet focus

Posted: 14th December 2017

Lessons took on a sweet focus as pupils studied Charlie and The Chocolate Factory.

As part of their project, the 60 Year 4 pupils at Freshwaters Primary Academy, in Harlow, worked with Chocolate By Design to create their own chocolate treats.

Robin Dalton, Year 4 class teacher, said: “Pupils have been reading Charlie and The Chocolate Factory. To compliment their learning, we held a chocolate-based activity day.

“Children learnt about the Aztec, Toltec and Mayan history of chocolate, how cocoa came to Europe and took part in a practical activity where they designed and made their own chocolate creations.

“It was an incredibly fun and enjoyable learning day. The children really engaged and enjoyed learning about chocolate.”
