#Science In science yesterday, we had a go at making our own switches and testing them out with our circuits.

In #English yesterday, we did some role play where we imagined we were exploring a new place in Egypt. We thought carefully about how we would feel and how this would show on our bodies, as well as what we might hear, see and feel.
