This CD ROM features introductory
materials to Newton's Apple,
a kit complete with all the ingredients
to produce natural handcrafted soap
that pupils can safely use, as well
as an interactive CD ROM and accompanying
web site. The ingredients (coconut,
palm and cocoa butter) originate from
the West Indies from sustainable and
renewable resources. The website links
in with other areas of the curriculum,
enabling pupils of all ages to use
the kit to explore geography, history,
science and business studies. Pupils
may use the Newton's Apple
website to develop their own business
plan and start a classroom soap making
enterprise, which can be sold at school
events. Newton's Apple is therefore
designed to be a fully cross-curricular
resource.
