The BFG who was Bullied!

Did you know that next week, on the 13th of September it is Roald Dahl Day! To celebrate this day we are focusing on Roald Dahl texts all week.

 Today for Well being we were learning about bullying behaviours through reading the BFG. We looked for how The BFG was being physically or verbally bullied in the text. Here is what we found!

Physical Bullying:

• 'He grabbed the BFG by his hair'
• 'The flesh lump eater shot out two enormous hands and grabbed the BFG around the waist. He tossed him high in the air and shouted "Catch him Manhugger!"
• 'The giants were playing ball with the BFG, vying with each to see who could through him the highest.'

Verbal Bullying

• "Here comes the runty one"
• "Ho ho ho, there runty one"
• "Go back to your cave runty one"
• "Now then you little Grobsquiffler"

While this book teaches us so much about Bullying Behaviours Roald Dahl is also a great arthor.
