UKS2 are currently reading the text ‘Street Child’ by Berlie Doherty.

Today the children acted in role as a key character and recorded video diary entries just after Jim’s escape from the workhouse.  Everyone did a great job of empathising with their chosen character (either Jim or Tip) and expressed their thoughts and feelings using evidence collected from the text.

A special thanks to the those children who were happy to feature on the website.
