The activity using the book "Charlie and Chocolate Factory" has been a very interesting work, and the vein, a challenge. By the way, all ESL classes are a challeng for me. I have been working hard and I hope improving my English as much as I can.
I can easily understand the book, but I don't understand the details. So, I need to use the dictionary. I know Kristi asks us all the time not to do this, but I think is very, very good to understand all that is written.
When I'm reading I connect parts of the history with real life, but not necessarily my life. Of course the author puts a strong meaning in parts of the book, in fact he overdoes, but even so it's very possible to reflect about the things he "says".
In class we can analyze in group the history under several ways, but I'm not sure if we're going to make the same effort as we did in the first day we used the book. I like to work with my group. All of us have been participating in a positive way until now.
I wish we had time to use another book in class. It's a very good way to learn new vocabulary, to analyze the history deeply and to check grammar
