We had the chance to do an awesome unit study this month. It's called The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Also, I was asked to write a review, so you all get to read my thoughts about it!
So here's the review---Tell me what you think! I think that this unit study would be fun for kids of all ages. There are a lot of crafts and projects to do. In one of the projects you make top hats, like the one Willy Wonka wears. After making the hat, you can decorate it any way you would like. You learn how to make candy too! The chocolate covered pretzels are a little messy to make, but really yummy! It also gives lots of really cool info about how they harvest coco beans. Some activities incorporate science and math---like a tetrahedron made out of marshmallows and straws!
It would be a really fun thing to do with kids of any age. I am a teen and I really enjoyed it! There are fun activities that are appropriate for little kids too! All in all, the Ultimate Guide to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a fun way to make reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory a really fun experience!
That's the view from here.
Hope you enjoyed it!
