Teacher Resources - The BFG
While George's Marvellous Medicine features in our new literacy musical Back to Before, we thought we'd give you some suggested teacher resources for another of Roald Dahl's all-time classics, The BFG.
Create some new giants to join the horrible crew that Sophie and the BFG have to deal with in the story
The early part of the book refers a lot to dreams and nightmares. Draw up a list of dreams and nightmares that children can remember having.
Write a newspaper report of the campaign to capture the fearsome giants
Create some imaginary recipes for a giant’s cook book – delicious recipes for human beans and the like.
Write a dictionary for the BFG’s words explaining what he actually means by some of the unusual words he uses.
