Matilda

In class we have been working on the visualizing skill. Use your five senses to descibe a scene in these pages that you were able to visualize very well.

Please share what you think the problem or conflict is in your novel. Is it surprising to you?

Also include a prediction for what you think will happen next.

Please comment on your first impression of the book.  Think about the following questions:

1.  How do you feel about the characters that were introduced so far?

2.  What do you look forward to the most in reading this novel?

3.  Make a prediction.  What do you think might happen next?

In both “The BFG” and “Matilda,” there was at least one mean character that enjoyed hurting children (Miss Trunchbull and the nasty giants). Plus, a little girl is one of the main characters in both books (Matilda and Sophie).

Welcome to the Matilda blog!  Students, please post your personal comments, reactions, connections, questions, etc. to your literature circle novel.
