Chocolate Fever
By Amy Crow

Clip to ScrapBook   
I teach 6th grade; however, you can adapt these activities for 4th graders.
Making chocolate pudding in class is very easy. Have the students bring a box of chocolate pudding and a plastic spoon. Talk to your cafeteria about getting some of those little cartons of milk that they serve to the students. That is all you will need. Then you write a recipe by using the instructions on the back of the box. Then, let the students practice "following directions" by reading your recipe and creating chocolate pudding. You can even tie in math skills with measuring. The kids love it and you can even use plastic zip lock bags instead of bowls or open the milk cartons so that they make a little bowl. Good luck.-amy
