As part of our chemistry case study, we have been looking at the different states of matter as well as reversible and irreversible changes. We have looked at how steam locomotives work and used our knowledge to conduct an investigation to find out whether the properties of steam would make our pin wheel candle holder spin!
As part of our English cycle we completed our Red Box lesson today which focused on figurative language.
We looked at lots of different language techniques but focused more carefully recognising a hyperbole, simile, personification and metaphor!
Thank you to Martin (our train expert) and to Plover who invited us to hangout so that we didn’t miss out on speaking to him and asking our questions!
He had lots of interesting stories and talked all about the history of rail and Doncaster’s rail heritage!
If you would like to access all of the photographs from the Year 5 and 6 trips to Harry Potter Studios (there are a lot!!) then please follow the links below!

As part of our Hook Week, the children built bridges to link in with our learning about the history of British rail. Each bridge had to hold the weight of a toy train! We had some really solid bridges – well done guys!
