Where in the World?

We have already found out a lot about the history of chocolate! We are now going to use our geography skills to find out where in the world it is grown and consumed! Look at this map to see if you can spot the countries that it is mostly grown and consumed? Are you surprised by any?

The darker the green colour the more chocolate is produced and the darker the orange colour is the more chocolate that is consumed!





Multiplication!

Next week we are going to look at using the grid method for multiplication! This is a method you have already used before and is a very organised and clear way to work out large sums!

Have a look at these images to remind yourself how to do it...



This image shows you how to multiply larger numbers! We will also be including decimals in our sums!
