Martin the builder came into Red Class to talk to us.
We have been watching the builders build a new classroom in the playground.

Martin explained that before you start building you have to make some plans.
Next you need to make a list of the materials you need.
Then you need to make sure you have all the safety equipment to protect the builders as they work.
