During Summer 2, the children will explore where the chocolate they eat comes from and how it is made. We will look at the countries that help us produce chocolate and then how it is manufactured here in England. To develop our writing skills this half term, we will read Charlie and the Chocolate factory and write a newspaper report! We will become reporters while learning how to create a new genre of writing.
