After studying very hard for the mid-year assessment, it is finally time to relax a little :)
For post exam activity, our class watched the movie: Matilda.
Matilda is a children novel written by Roald Dahl (illustrated by Quentin Blake).
Roald Dahl is also the author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Here are the pre-movie questions:
1) What special power does Matilda have?
2) Who is Matilda's best friend?
3) Who believes in Matilda?
The following is a website link to the novel Matilda:
