Contextual Summary


This is a English/Spoken Language task that enables students to practise their questioning and listening skills, as well as summarising techniques. The task links to specific information about the Isle of Wight Steam Railway that should be interesting and relevant to students in upper key stage 2.

Questions have been chosen because they link with core English skills on the 2014 curriculum and also specific cross-curricular skills for example in the subjects of History (how the past is represented) and Science (forces, materials and their properties, etc.).
