This week in Varjak Paw, we were thinking about the different settings in the story – the city surrounding the Contessa’s house and Mesopotamia, which Varjak visits in his dreams. The children created a soundscape in table groups of one or other of the settings and saw whether the other children could guess which it was. We compared the different locations in readiness for our writing.
Even SF Said, the author of Varjak Paw, has listened to our soundscapes!
