Year 2 -digital photography
This half term we have been learning all about digital photography. We know how to take a good photograph, if we should take it in portrait or landscape format, to take a selfie and to edit our pictures to enhance them! Lots of budding photographers in the making!
Year 2 - Christmas yoga
The children enjoyed a wonderful Christmas yoga session. Looking at the word Christmas and doing yoga poses for each letter, we had lots of amazing ideas including stars, icicles, reindeers, stockings and trees. Well done Year 2!
