“Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” is a fantastical story about a young boy who lives a simple life with his parents and grandparents and has a dream of visiting Willy Wonka’s famous chocolate factory someday. Will Charlie finally get his wish? Join me as we read about the eccentric characters and sweet destinations in this magical book. 

This class will help your child develop their reading, vocabulary, book analysis, character development and socializing skills.

During each lesson we will review new vocabulary words, discuss the difference between Charlie’s life and our own, examine character personalities in detail, and more. Students will be asked to read approximately 10 pages a day outside of class and should be ready to discuss topics from the assigned text. If time allows, we may read aloud/along in class but this is optional.
