Your session leader will connect you directly to the Museum through a mix of pre-recorded films in and around their galleries, live presentation, and facilitated activities using pre-delivered resources for your class to do with them.

 

Discover the different ways that Roald Dahl found ideas for his characters before using two of these techniques to start creating your very own. Perfect for Years 2-4 and Years 5-8.

Included in the cost of a Livestream session are:
– all learning materials needed in a downloadable Resource Pack

You don’t need to be a Wonka tech wizard to enjoy this experience with your class! They will guide you through the process to make setting up your session as straightforward as possible.

About Roald Dahl Museum

The Roald Dahl Museum is the perfect place to see the writing process in action by one of its masters. Students will discover how they can use the same techniques themselves and find out more about Roald Dahl’s life while exploring their fun, interactive galleries in one of their facilitated workshops.

Come face-to-face with Fantastic Mr Fox, measure up to your Roald Dahl heroes, pull a power pose next to Matilda and discover Roald Dahl’s famous Writing Hut – the birthplace of your favourite characters – at the Museum of the World’s No.1 Storyteller.

The aim is for your visit to be HANDS-ON, INVESTIGATIVE and EXCITING. Their schools’ programme is delivered by an experienced Learning Team. All of their team hold an Enhanced DBS clearance and regularly review and update their professional skills.

They offer two types of workshops – galleries-based 90 minute workshops, or archive-based 180 minute workshops. Both types are based around a key literacy area which is the focus throughout your visit.
