I have created a booklet/resource pack to support persuasive writing! Based around chocolate bars, pupils must design their own chocolate bar, logo and slogan, as well as the supporting advertising campaign. I have used this resource in the past for pupils to work independently, as well as in small groups. We finished the week with having a Dragon's Den style session, where everybody voted for their favourite, most persuasive sales pitch!
Any feedback is welcomed and I hope you and your pupils enjoy using this resource.
I have written a model text to support newspaper report writing. This text is based on the story of Charlie and the chocolate factory by Roald Dahl.
I really hope that you find this resource useful and I would love to see how you use it! Please share to my instagram @teaching.in.the.sun
There are three photocopiable worksheets which are created by Franklin Watts for the title 'Espresso Ideas Box: Chocolate'. They include a template for a collage, a questionnaire for a chocolate factory visit and a writing frame for a diary of a day out. The activities stand alone, but using them in conjunction with the book will offer a more complete learning experience.
I was looking for a presentation about Fair Trade chocolate, but really struggled. I found a great presentation about Fair Trade bananas and tweaked it. Hope this helps you!
