Matilda, written by Roald Dahl, is a great book to target vocabulary development. These mini posters are organised by chapters with six to an A4 page.

Each poster has a discreet label for organisational purposes. The target word is obvious, followed by the part of speech category it belongs to in the context of the story. I have added an explanation for adjectives and adverbs because I have found my students get confused by these terms more than any other.

The definition has been refined to reflect the meaning intended by the author (my interpretation), and the extract from the story will contribute to comprehension and retention to extend vocabulary. You could use them as a stimulus for creative writing.

There are 20 pages with Chapters 18 and 19 combined.
