  • 1 Character Analysis of Matilda Wormwood from Roald Dahl's
    1 Character Analysis of Matilda Wormwood from Roald Dahl's Matilda Roald Dahl’s Matilda is one of the most famous children’s novels of the 20th century. The protagonist of this tale is Matilda Wormwood, a five and a half-year-old girl with a brilliant and lively mind that distances her from the rest of the family. Matilda’s character is particularly interesting as she has a powerful personality with extraordinary mental abilities, and she manages to overcome all the obstacles that surround her. The main aspect of Matilda’s personality is her particular image. From the beginning of the novel, Dahl described Matilda as exceptional person: “the child in question is extraordinary, and by that, I mean sensitive and brilliant” (1). Natov called her a rebellious superhero child with extraordinary mental strengths (140). Moreover, it is interesting that coming for the first time to the library, Matilda starts reading the book Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. This fact makes a reader assume that a great change will happen with the main character. However, Matilda is growing up surrounded by a not appreciating environment. The girl’s parents are not interested in education or literature. Her mom, Mrs Wormwood, spends afternoons playing bingo, and her dad, Mr Wormwood, is a cheater. As grotesquely described by the author, they were too involved in their “silly little lives” to understand how special their daughter is (Dahl 2). Matilda, therefore, is continually told by her parents that she is “a noisy chatterbox” and that “small girls should be seen and not heard” (Dahl 11).

  • Music & Lyrics
    Music & Lyrics Music & Lyrics By following the steps on the site so far, students will have created their characters and begun to plot out their scene. The next step is to think how they might add music and songs. For students who are just writing a scene, this is still an exciting step to fully understand the process of creating a musical for the theatre. The activities in this section are aimed at students of all musical abilities. For some students, the activities may be part of an early introduction to music. Other students may be much more familiar and so able to tackle the extended tasks where listed. Using the Music Webpage: The films on the Music web page will give students a real insight into Tim Minchin’s process for creating lyrics and music. After watching his interview, students can play with the sound buttons on the site to start to build up their ideas for the music for their song. Songs don’t have to be set to music but using the buttons and taking part in activities will give them a good start for thinking about the tone of their song and what kind of music might suit their lyrics. The activities outlined in this resource pack are also accompanied by a film showing how they might be used in the classroom. The exercises aim to help the students write rhythmically and lyrically. The resources can also act as standalone activities that can be adapted to other forms of music in your school curriculum. Useful Starting Points: Getting the students used to describing different styles of music and understanding the function of songs in storytelling.
