Charles Dickens in the hot seat
Children are being offered the chance to fire questions at Charles Dickens in Headline History's first hot seat chat session.
The award-winning website for young children (Key Stages 2 & 3) brings history to life using a series of virtual newspapers covering the Romans, Tutors, Victorians and World War II. Pupils can use a range of materials - including filmed 'witnesses' - in order to complete their stories.
The live 30-minute chat session takes place Monday, 8 May at 6pm. Teacher, actor and Dickens expert, Will Jessop, will play the author.
