After a busy week of preparation, 2P finally enjoyed our Royal Ball. An honorary King and Queen was chosen at different points in the event and they had to decide which group had amused them the most! The children did some Knight training and learnt to Joust, followed by some Jester training learning to juggle. Later, we learnt to do a short Royal Ball dance and finally did some soldier fitness with some skipping. The Kings and Queens were most amused!

This week, 2P have hooked into our new Expedition; Rags to Riches: What lies within the Castle walls?
Dragons started our week and we went on a dragon hunt. We used our adjectives to make a simple poem. We have studied shields, their emblems and the designs you might find on a banner. We then made our own shields with personal designs that said something about us. Our class banner also represented everyone in the class.

Exciting news! 2L has been lucky enough to have been given a PE slot with the coaches each week.
PE will be on THURSDAY each week so please send your child to school in their PE kit.
Thank you for your support,

This week we designed fairy doors for our crew community project, we took part in some graffiti artwork and played a team building game where we had to work out which colour sticker we had on our heads. The children were not allowed to speak and instead had to communicate in different ways. I was very impressed by their signing skills!
On Day 3, we enjoyed creating our fairy doors and our very own fairy wings.

Year 2 has concluded their exploration of this guiding question. We have taken our fairy doors into the local woodland and hope they will make people smile as they spot them. Please leave our doors where they are if you do spot them! We have also left a little present near each door. This has a little book to share at home and a handwritten poem by Year 2 to share the excitement of opening a book. We hope that when people have read the books, they will put them back into the bags and re-hide them for someone else to find.

2P have started to answer our Crew guiding question. We discussed that building our community and showing kindness to others should happen everywhere. We have decided to create some fairy doors that we will place in the local community to help cheer everyone up. There will also be some little surprises placed with them! We used our collaboration and critique skills today to design what we wanted to add onto our doors.

It was lovely getting to know the children on their first day today and finding out about their Summer holidays! We began by thinking about our different emotions and about what they would look like on our faces. This afternoon we enjoyed playing some crew building games and working on our listening and communication skills.
I’m looking forward to seeing you tomorrow!

Welcome back to 2P! We have started easing back into school by building our Crew skills. Today we focussed on emotions and we thought about how different colours can be matched to different feelings. We tried to show what we might look like when we are happy, sad, scared or angry. We talked about how we can sometimes control our feelings ourselves but that we might sometimes need help from others.
This afternoon, we had to use communication skills to solve problems in our team games. We were surprised at how quickly we can make progress when we work together!
