The Castle in the Field - Class collaboration

This year for Book Week Mrs Costello selected 6 books for our class. We are reading one of them for our class novel. The Castle in the Field By Michael Morpurgo.

We decided to 'Turn it Digital' by creating a google drawing for each page. When we are finished we will screencastify ourselves reading the story. We plan to share this with Syndicate 1 classes!
