Oliver Twist Chapter 1 - The Workhouse

Hi everyone and happy Friday!

Please watch my video below - I am reading chapter 1 of Oliver Twist. I don't expect you to understand everything, but I hope you understand some parts of the story.

Can you summarise this chapter in your own words? You must include:
- Where Oliver lived before his ninth birthday and why
- Where Oliver lived after his ninth birthday
- Information about Mr Bumble and Mr Sowerberry.

Enjoy!

Leah
