Good choice for related text.

1. Matilda doesn't belong in family.
2. Matilda finds a sense of familial belonging with Ms Honey.
3. Ditto, but with classmates.
4. The catalyst for belonging is the personality of Ms Trunchbull, it creates a sense of unity for the class - giving them a purpose (ie, to overthrow Trunchbull).
