You MIGHT be able to make more than one example by using different materials. It needs to look accurate so try to make sure you use the correct number of stone and position these correctly!

Monday 1st March - Presenting the Presentations!
For those of you who for whatever reason may NOT have been able to complete a presentation, I have attached my Powerpoint presentation below, plus my Powerpoint but in picture format (in case you can't open on Powerpoint). You are welcome to present mine though I will only be evaluating certain criteria then.
Alternatively, you can present your chocolate booklet and I will evaluate how you get on with that.
Hope this helps!

English - w/c 22nd February
Monday 22nd February 2021 - Chocolate Intro
Tuesday 23rd - Thursday 25th February 2021 - Research and booklet (The History of Chocolate)
Below is my example of a booklet. Remember this is for you to make/write by hand (although you may choose to print some pictures). I have not completed the glossary, as if you are doing one of your own, it would be good to look up the definitions. Remember to search as follows/here is an example: "Definition of Emperor
for kids." I have highlighted "for kids" since you need to understand the definition you are writing down. Good luck!
Friday 26th February - Powerpoint (or equivalent) Presentation
You may wish to watch the following videos or not - it is up to you! They show a few skills that may come in useful on Powerpoint though you may be better asking an older sibling or grown-up if you can, just because it is difficult to show you on a screen like this!
If you put my Powerpoint into Slide Show format, you can see some of the skills I have used to present this. Remember what I have said about the information being the important part though!
