As Christmas draws ever nearer, I think it would be great for my English Set to read one of the most famous Christmas stories aroud - A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens. This book was written 168 years ago, but is rich in linguistic delights and moral themes; it is also a thumping good tale.
Being such an old book means that it is now out of copyright so there are many free ways to read it including ereaders such as the Kindle and Kobo. There are also PDF files available on the net. If you do not have a copy of the book at home, you can view it with the link below. Do not try and print it though because there are well over 100 pages of it and this would be expensive to print.
For homework, read and talk about chapter 1 with a grown up at home ready for some "Book Club" sessions next week.
