UNIT OVERVIEW
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
OVERVIEW This novel study provides teachers with a highly structured format for teaching language arts as students develop a love for reading longer materials like novels. Various areas such as reading comprehension, vocabulary development, spelling, grammar and writing are all entwined in this integrated approach. Activities are divided into three main sections: 1) Chapter Questions For each chapter grouping there are a number of thought-provoking questions. These are presented in a variety of formats, including true & false, multiple choice, short answer and complete sentence answer. Reading comprehension is key as students must read and understand the entire passage in order to answer the questions. 2) Language & Vocabulary Each set of chapters contains a number of activities dealing with skills such as: sentence structure, nouns, alphabetizing, subject & predicate, quotation marks, adjectives, verbs, plurals, contractions, adverbs, verb phrases, similes, meanings, Pig Latin, phrasing, preposition, couplet poetry, suffixes, syllables, numerical order, adverb phrases, collective nouns, comparative adjectives & adverbs, superlative adjectives & adverbs and homonyms. 3) Writing and Creativity This section gives students the opportunity to apply what they have learned and to use their creativity and imagination to complete activities. Activities such as short poetry, creative writing, unscrambling, using clues to solve a puzzle, and word web will generate student enthusiasm for writing and creative thinking. Tips for Teachers Working through the novel study using a variety of reading approaches seems to work best. One proven method is for the teacher to read the book out loud to the entire class the first time, stopping after a chapter or two. To answer the questions, students will have to reread the passage on their own. Having students read sections silently by themselves, out loud with partners or in small groups are all possible variations to keep student interest high. One way to gain a measure of the effectiveness of the novel study and to gauge student interest is to instruct students not to read ahead on their own. Basic reverse psychology dictates that students will invariably be slouching down into their desks to sneak in a chapter while the teacher knowingly turns a blind eye. With regard to activities, teachers can photocopy entire booklets for each student or only the portions that they wish to use. One possible method of reducing this large amount of photocopying is to have students write down chapter questions and answers in their notebooks. Teachers are free to pick and choose assignments as they see fit and to add any additional lessons or worksheets which they have developed.
