Quick Tour - Online Stories 2

One of the most interesting aspects of the stories is that each child will see events through the eyes of the character they have chosen. For example, Charlie's story progresses and at one point he sees Nellie. This meeting is seen by the child only from Charlie's perspective. However another child may have chosen to read Nellie's story. Nellie and Charlie will see each other in the same place in the story but the second pupil will see the meeting only from Nellie's point of view.

This feature opens up some exciting prospects for debate and writing from perspective. Each pupil is involved with the same day, the same events, the same story but from the point of view of their character. They have no idea what the other characters are doing (apart from any meetings with them) and they have no idea of their thoughts or reasons for their actions.
