Matilda (part 2) | Teacher Features: Episode 10

January 24, 2017 by Jake Scott Leave a Comment

Teacher FeaturesThis week we continued our discussion of Matilda and did a teacher evaluation of Agatha Trunchbull, aka The Trunchbull, the principal at Matilda’s school.

Ms. Trunchbull, a former Olympian, rules her school with an iron fist. Her towering figure and acerbic tongue strike fear into the hearts of her students and staff. A firm believer in corporal punishment, The Trunchbull does not tolerate anything less than full obedience. Her methods would certainly get her ousted from her position at the school – and probably incarcerated, but we were able to find a few positive things to say about this colorful character.

If you, like Kathryn, don’t know a lot about Olympic field events, specifically the hammer throw, check out this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammer_throw

If you love Bruce Bogtrotter as much as we did, and also like Rhianna, check out this great video: 

We would love to see the Matilda musical when it comes to Minneapolis this Spring, so if you want to go with us reach out on Facebook or Twitter.
