MORE CHOCOLATE PLEASE!

Today we did some chocolate eating and some nutrition information calculating.  We learned about serving sizes and moderation.  We talked about calories, fat, sugar, sodium, carbohydrates, and protein.  We used our knowledge of fractions to calculate the amount of each of those nutritional components in two chocolate bars.  And then we ate two pieces each.

Check out our math work below.  Some of us took it a step further and calculated information in servings for our whole class of 19 or servings per kid in our 2 squares.

18 squares in 1 bar. 18+18=36 So...36 squares in 2 bars.

170 calories in 1 serving. 6 servings in 2 bars. 170x6=1,020

If we each get 2 little squares. 6 squares in 1 serving. 11g of fat in 1 serving. 11/3=3 2/3.

If we each got our own serving...15g carbphydrates in 1 serving. 15x19=285.
