We have been reading about the BFG and Sophie visiting the Queen at Buckingham Palace.

Today we were set a challenge. In our groups we had to build a palace fit for the Queen. It had to have:

• at least 20 windows
• at least 3 arches
• a flag flying from the roof
• an impressive front door

We had to decide in our groups who would have the following jobs:

• time keeper
• materials manager
• facilitator
• quality checker

We then had one hour to build our palaces using:

• paper
• cardboard boxes
• glue

The photos show the production process.
