This lesson examines the amount of money everyone in the production chain receives for the sale of a £1 bar of chocolate. The children view the IWB and look at the different roles involved in production such as farmers, cocoa buyers etc.
The children then have a blank chocolate bar. They will cut this bar to represent how much they believe each person SHOULD get after listening to their roles in the production chain.
You will then reveal how much they actually earn. This creates an excellent shock factor for the children as they usually believe the farmers should get a high amount only to find out it is virtually nothing.
Children then have another blank chocolate bar and this time cut them up to show what they actually get.
Compare the two and discuss this is why we have Fairtrade.
A fantastic lesson!
