Exploring the Possibilities!

The purpose of the blog is to provide additional support to educators as well as parents and community members who wish to create schools which will provide children with the experiences needed to flourish!

Celebrating Chocolate Day at your school is an excellent opportunity for integrating many content standards, from language arts to math to science and to many important social issues.  

The study of the chocolate industry, past and present, has connections to economics, environmental studies, history, geography, cultural studies, anthropology and more.

Multiple literacies taught/developed through a Chocolate Project include the arts and creativity, ecoliteracy, financial literacy, media literacy, information literacy,  social/emotional literacies, global competencies and physical fitness and health.

Visit our Chocolate page on the 21st Century Schools' Curriculum Resources site.  There you will find suggestions for curricular connections that not only meet the content standards but are meaningful and motivational for your students.
