Moving Metal
We will learn all about forces and magnets in Science, including a ‘tug of war’ to illustrate the forces at work. In Design Technology children learn all about moving metal through the use of mechanisms, wheels and axels. We will make a moving vehicle, utilising our new knowledge to attract the iron man.
Quality Text: The Iron Man
We read ‘The Iron Man’ as our quality text. We will learn all about how to write a gripping, setting description to announce the arrival of the Iron Man and will fill the reader with fear as he destroys the village.
