The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane

Here at Dulwich Hamlet Junior School, my Year 3 class are loving this story. Each day we place (a donated) Edward carefully in his chair in front of the window on our display board. I then open the curtains to reveal the 'clues' in the window for the next chapter. This has generated excellent discussions and enaged all children. The teaching sequence moves at a gentle pace. This has given the less able writers more time to breathe and think about their writing. Can't wait to find out what happens next! Paul Hume
