New Topic: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

Our new topic in Year 4 is Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Over the half term holidays we asked the children to make their own Mr Willy Wonka and we have been so impressed with the models we have recieved!! We would like to say a massive thank you to the children and the parents for their huge effort on this piece of homework. Below are some examples of the models we recieved; and the display we have created in the hallway; 





In our literacy lessons we have begun reading the first 4 chapters with the children and have looked at the characters Charlie Bucket and Willy Wonka. The children have been using interesting adjectives to describe Charlie's looks, personality and his behaviour. They have been reading descriptions of Willy Wonka carefully and using these to draw accurate pictures of how they imagine him to look.
