First, we
read Chocolate Fever by Eric Kimmel Smith and then
watched the same video to compare it to the book. We found they
were very similar. Next, we read The Chocolate Touch by
Patrick Skene Catling. Then, we read Chocolatina by
Erik Kraft. We then compared/contrasted the main characters from
each of these books. Then, we formed groups of four and each
group member was responsible for illustrating and writing about
one of the story elements. We then scanned them into the
computer and made a PowerPoint story map. Our chocolate fun
isn't over yet...We still plan to graph and count with M&Ms,
graph our favorite chocolate story, and collect data about our
favorite kinds of chocolate!
