Chocolate relay Race - Students must run to unwrap the chocolate twix bar and then feed it to the next person in their team. 2.

The winning team wins points. 4.

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.

I’ve also included some extracts produced by my students as examples for the creative leaflets . Overall it was fun to teach and my students loved it.
