Year 3 / 4 have been reading The Iron Man in literacy. This has really fired up their imaginations and as a result they have produced some fabulous work in literacy.  The book fitted in perfectly with our Recycling topic. The children brought in cardboard boxes, foil, old plastic bottles, bottle tops and other assorted reusable items.

In small groups their challenge was to build an iron man using just the materials provided. This also helped to develop their Design and Technology skills as well as working as a team.

Great fun was had by all (especially the parent helpers- you know who you are!!). The Iron Men are currently on display in the year 3 4 reading bay so please feel free to have a look at how creative your children have been.
