Answer 1

Answer:

The first time Matilda realizes she can move things is in Miss Honey's class when Miss Trunchbull comes for her weekly lesson. Lavender had already planned to play a trick on Miss Trunchbull by putting a newt in the jug of water Miss Trunchbull expects during every class visit. After she pours water from the jug, the newt falls into her glass and is trapped inside until Matilda does something about it.

''And now, quite slowly, there began to creep over Matilda a most extraordinary and peculiar feeling. ... She kept her eyes steadily on the glass, and now the power was concentrating itself in one small part of each eye and growing stronger and stronger and it felt as though millions of tiny little invisible arms with hands on them were shooting out of her eyes towards the glass she was staring at.''

While Matilda sits at her desk, she thinks the words ''tip it'' over and over. The glass begins to tilt backwards and she keeps concentrating, pushing for the glass to tip over. The glass finally tilts over, and the newt splashes out with the water!

Matilda has concentrated so hard with her eyes that she made the glass move. This was her first experience realizing she has the power of telekinesis, or the power to move things using only her mind.
