Year 2: Maypole Dancing

November 21, 2019
Year 2 have been reading a book called 'Beware of Teachers' in which a sneaky wolf plans to hunt down a teacher for his tea. Luckily, the teacher catches on to the wolf's cunning plan. He ends up tied in the strings of a Maypole. 

To gain a greater understanding of this book, the children took part in a maypole dancing session. Not only have the children had the opportunity to explore a new experience, but they have also been able to bring their learning to life.

By working as a team, every group was able to complete the maypole dance. The teachers were even able to escape being caught up in the ribbons; unlike the wolf from the story!
