Wild, Wacky and Wonderful Wonka Day!

What a blast we had celebrating Wonka Day today!  Our classroom was filled with the most adorable gathering of Charlie Buckets, Violet Beauregards, Verucca Salts, Willy Wonkas, Oompa Loompas, Mike Teavee, a Wonka Bar and a Chocolate River.  While we were simply enjoying taking on our new roles as characters in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, we were also engaged in some great learning as well! We collected and graphed data from the Chocolate River, wrote Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Story Problems, solved a Wonka crossword puzzle,  created character riddles and went on a fabulous scavenger hunt for a Golden Ticket.  

Here we are in action:
