Yesterday was Roald Dahl's birthday and we also celebrated 30 years of the BFG. The BFG blows dreams into little children as they sleep and so we came up with our dreams for the future.
We had also just finished reading James and the Giant Peach so we had a quiz. The Mean Aunt Spiker group and James Great Adventure groups won getting seven out of 10 correct. The Mean Aunt Spiker group was made up of Amelia, Paarth and Faye. James' Great Adventure group was made up of Shaynie-Lee, Oliver and Saphyre.
Test out how well you can do with the quiz below.
1) Until what age did James have a happy life?
2) How did James' parents die?
3) What are James' aunts' names?
4) Which of the creatures in the Giant Peach does James tie shoelaces for?
5) How many feet does this creature have?
6) Which of the creatures is described as a 'lady firefly without wings?'
7) Which of the creatures lived happily ever after with the Head of the Fire Department?
8) What do the Cloud-Men make in summer to practice for the winter?
9) How old was Roald Dahl when James and the Giant Peach was published?
10) In an early version of the story, James found a different kind of giant fruit. What was it?

Hi Room 11
ReplyDeleteRoald Dahl is one of my favourite authors too! I really like The BFG because of the way the giant makes up all those words, like "Snozcumber"! I think Roald Dahl makes the words into pictures in my mind and I love that!
