Day 3 of my Roald Dahl themed summer camp (originally taught to Korean EFL students)
It includes:
*A simplified version of the story using Quentin Blake illustrations.
* A memory game based on food items found in Mr Twit’s beard and worksheet.
*Scavenger Hunt worksheet and clues (which are printed and hidden around the school- the first pair to find all the words win!)
*Birds Nest Crispy Cakes Recipe
*Mrs Twit’s spaghetti toasties recipe
*Wordsearch and colouring page
This was Day 1 of my Roald Dahl themed EFL summer camp.
It includes art activities, games and cooking ideas based on the book ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’.The day followed this plan:
Introduction
1. Introduce the story and characters
2. Students use the worksheet to draw themselves in the style of Quentin Blake and write about their favourite things.
3. Allocate students into teams and they introduce themselves to the rest of their team.
Team Games
1. Chocolate relay Race
- Students must run to unwrap the chocolate twix bar and then feed it to the next person in their team.
2. Balloon Popping Game
- In teams students must throw the darts to try and pop the balloons. The team to pop the most wins points.
3. Golden Egg and Spoon Race
- Students must race around the room, against the other team, whilst balancing an egg on a spoon. If they drop the egg they must restart and go again. The winning team wins points.
4. Design a candy
-Introduce different ingredients (unscramble the letters for EFL)
-Taste Test (students try to describe what they are eating whilst blindfolded)
- Introduce Willy Wonka’s strange inventions.
- In teams the students must think of a new type of chocolate bar/candy.
-Students draw and describe their invention using the worksheet and make posters.
- Teams present their invention to the rest of the class (my personal favourites were flying insect sweets and ‘King Candy’ that tasted like gold and made you feel like royalty for an hour… kids can be so imaginative!)
-The most interesting new candy invention will win points.
Art and Crafts
1. Clay Photo frames
-Using coloured card, PVA glue, paints and clay students decorate their individual photo frames.
2. Photobooth Props
- Students make props and costumes for the photobooth- including small hats, funny hairstyles, bowties, cut out candy bars and golden tickets on sticks that they can hold and pose with. A group photo is then chosen and printed to go in the frame as a fun reminder of the camp.
Cooking
1. Willy Wonka Bread
- Students spread butter or Nutella onto their sliced bread and decorate with sprinkles. These sandwiches can be cut into shapes and eaten…
- As they eat their sandwiches students can watch the movie with subtitles.
- If they finish early or don’t want to watch the movie they can complete the wordsearch worksheet.
2. Chocolate fondue and fruit slices on sticks.
3. Wonka fudge and Oompa Loompa cheesecake pops- I found these online and have included images and links to the recipes in the ppt.
4. Augustus Gloop Chocolate Slime
-Again found online. I did not have time to try this with my students but there is a link to the instructions. *Not edible!
My Reading Journey
Students stick this worksheet in the front of their exercise books or homework diaries.
It can be used to keep a record of their reading and encourage them to reflect on the texts they have read.
