Chocolate

In school, we did a reading practice test for the test at the end of the year. It was a story about chocolate. I LOVE chocolate. Most kids do.


According to the prompt story, chocolate may be healthy - if you take out the sugar and fat.
 
The first people to use "chocolate took the powder and mixed it with hot water, forming something like today's "hot chocolate." The Maya and the Aztecs also used cacao as medicine to give to sick people. They called it xocolatl. When the Aztecs gave Hernando Cortes the drink, he quoted something along the lines of, "The drink is bitter, but drinking it will let one go without food for a day."


Back to reality!


A few days ago me and my class went to our school store, run by the sixth-graders in Mr. Jargon's room. I bought a few pens, a camera pencil sharpener, and a piece of chocolate.




Here are some pictures of my items.
