In history this week, Year 5 were looking at the importance of coal during the Industrial Revolution.
Across the world, coal had been used as a source of heat for thousands of years. It produced more heat and was cleaner than burning wood. One of the important uses of coal was in the making of iron, another key material for the development of the industry.
The children created some amazing pieces of art using charcoal to depict an Industrial Revolution city scene. I think you will agree that the finished results are super!
