Year 2: 2022-2023 (Summer Term)
The weather was kind to us for our activity day at the beach today…volleyball, dodgeball, team games, kick rounders and a spot of sandcastle building. Thanks to the parents who came along to help - we will sleep soundly tonight! @Miss_Carr_Falla @MissButlerFP @FallaParkSchool pic.twitter.com/PjqSfbEtT3

We put our hockey skills to the test this afternoon by playing our first games of hockey. Great effort after only 3 weeks of teaching! @MissButlerFP @Miss_Carr_Falla @FallaParkSchool pic.twitter.com/LGTxj5VdAH

Thank you to all of our parents for taking the time to come to our final open event of the year this morning. It was great to see you working alongside your child to support them to make a fabulous puppet, very creative! @FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla pic.twitter.com/VS3IQ8qaJb

In science we thought about how plants grow from a seed or bulb, including edible plants. We found the seeds in different foods and replanted them. We watched a time lapse of plants growing and thought about the changes 🌱 🪴 🍅 🥭 @Mrs_Crellin @Miss_Carr_Falla @FallaParkSchool pic.twitter.com/TPGuu1ZqX8

Today we thought about different ways to join fabrics together before practising threading a needle and sewing to join two pieces of felt then joining other pieces of material by gluing, stapling and taping around the edges 🪡 🧵 ✂️ @Mrs_Crellin @Miss_Carr_Falla @FallaParkSchool pic.twitter.com/MtvXPqwbnn

Today we evaluated existing products at the start of our textiles topic about puppets, thinking about the materials used, how they were joined and who the intended user is 🧵 🧸 @Mrs_Crellin @Miss_Carr_Falla @FallaParkSchool pic.twitter.com/Jiw8EeQ9qz

Today we practised balancing a ball, hitting a target and bouncing a ball, all using a racket to control the ball. We considered the power needed and the importance of keeping our eyes on the moving ball 🎾 @MissButlerFP @Miss_Carr_Falla @FallaParkSchool pic.twitter.com/RjOZRUwvji

Year 2 came up with questions they wanted to find out about Australia. We then used our own expert, Mrs Errington, to answer the questions from her time there. 🇦🇺 @FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla @MrsYoungfp pic.twitter.com/L2InfxazL8

In P.E. we have been learning how to hold a racket correctly and how to hit a tennis ball accurately, with the correct pressure, to hit a target. We played ‘wall ball’ to practise hitting a ball repeatedly with increasing speed. @MissButlerFP @FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla pic.twitter.com/qE7NAurvgK

We got to feed the chickens, brush the Shetland ponies, see the newly born calf, eat cakes made from the chicken’s eggs, roll down hills, plant seeds….. and much more!@FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla @CountryTrust pic.twitter.com/ePuLW40v1W
Today we turned the hall into a year 2 art gallery. We shared our work, discussed what we liked and what we would like to change, and reflected on what we liked in the work of others. 🖼️🎨👩🎨@FallaParkSchool @Miss_Carr_Falla @MissBrent pic.twitter.com/mizZY5BwFJ
