Very useful resource. Thanks :)
This resource is brilliant. My Year 3 class found it really helpful when writing their character descriptions. Would definitely recommend if your class is studying the Iron Man.
Not quite what I was looking for - would have been better if the previews showed the contents slightly closer so that I could have previewed them a little clearer
