Boy - Lesson 6 - Going to Norway PowerPoint

In this engaging English lesson, students delve into the enchanting childhood memories of famed author Roald Dahl, particularly focusing on his holidays in Norway. The lesson is structured to inspire students to discuss the attributes of an ideal holiday before studying Dahl's experiences in Norway as described in the chapters 'Going to Norway' and 'The Magic Island'. Through these narratives, pupils uncover fascinating details about the country, from the bustling capital city of Oslo to the serene beauty of the Norwegian islands. They are encouraged to answer questions that explore various aspects of Norwegian life, including the local cuisine, unique traditions such as 'skaaling', and the natural environment that offers both adventure and tranquillity.

Building on their newfound knowledge, the students are then tasked with creating an enticing magazine advertisement aimed at attracting tourists to Norway. In crafting their advertisements, they must consider how to effectively portray the picturesque scenery, the warm hospitality of the Norwegian people, the delectable food and drink options, and the array of activities available to visitors. The assignment also involves describing the charm and attractions of Oslo, Norway's capital. This exercise not only enhances the students' understanding of Norway but also develops their persuasive writing skills, as they learn to create compelling content that highlights the allure of this Scandinavian destination.
