A great story from Jackson.com.Their article a clever use of chocolate describes how one ingenious elementary teacher uses Hershey's chocolate bars to illustrate fractions.
Apparently Michelle Lester has been teaching 'chocolate fractions' to her students for a few years now and claims that the students grasp the concept of fractions more easily with this idea.
'During chocolate fractions, Lester reads problems aloud from a book provided by the Hershey Corporation. Students then have to figure out the fractions remaining by removing the individual pieces of the Hershey bar."
If only my teacher had been so inventive!
