Description
Everyone Loves chocolate! This project based learning math and economics unit is perfect for primary students with a yummy Chocolate Shop theme. Students can work collaboratively as they create their own chocolate bars. YUM!! Plus, this unit will go with your books about chocolate!
You can pick and choose how you want to implement the unit. Each activity can be a great addition to your economics unit. (Each activity should be self-explanatory.) I've included different activities that 2nd, 3rd or 4th graders would enjoy. The activities would complement any unit you may already have. I've provided great books for additional resources. (Please note**I removed a Smartboard activity that wasn't working correctly. The product still has 80 pages. It was an added bonus.)
I've provided 25 different activities that are perfect for differentiation in your classroom.
