Using a story based approach, Victorian Britain, introduces children to various characters all based on real people and explores each character's perspective of life in 1881. This inspiring resource provides plenty of opportunities for discussion and is an excellent stimulus for children's own creative writing. Children have to make choices which influence the outcome of the story and these dilemmas provide great opportunities for class discussion. A 'resource base' provides images and information on Victorian objects, people and places to extend the range of children's historical knowledge and to enrich each of the character's stories. 'Virtual Burton' offers a faithful reconstruction of Burton-upon-Trent as it was in 1881. Over 450 buildings have been accurately computer modelled to provide a stunning historical backdrop. Thirteen characters from a wide range of backgrounds can be questioned about their lives as they take you in different journeys along animated streets.
