Roald Dahl (1916-1990)

Do you know any children's stories by Roald Dahl? Which ones?

The LandLady

• A short story for adults
• What is a landlady?

Als je straks gaat studeren, lijkt het je dan wat om iets te gaan huren bij een landlady?

• Waarom wel/niet?
• Write down in your notebooks

What do you need?

Everything should be in your drive in Classroom. Please go to your Classroom to "The Landlady". Can you find it?

And just as a back-up - links to all the stuff you need:

• the text: The Landlady.pdf
• the worksheet assignments
• if you want to listen to the story: audio version 
  (you'll be needing headphones)

What do you do?

• (3 min) read the questions from part B of the assignment
• read (and listen to) the story (audio version = 23 minutes)
  Ask me for help if you have any questions; 
• answer the questions from part B of the assignment
  (write down in your CB)

 

• class choice: do you want to read on your own or do you want me to read out loud? Main difference: you get to ask quesions during reading.

The Second Lesson

• Finish reading and answering the questions (15 mins)
• EXTRA: Finished everything? Go to Classroom and watch the beginning of the film (it's quite old-fashioned...). Try to answer the question in the box. 
• you may also start on
