Year 2: Literacy

June 16, 2022

To begin our new story book for our English topic 'Flat Stanley', the children have had the opportunity to follow a set of instructions to make a kite. The children used a plastic bag, dowel rods, string and tape to create their kite, and then added the character Flat Stanley to the front.

Once all kites were made, the fun really began! After listening to the famous song, 'Let's go fly a kite' we skipped downstairs into the sunny playground and let the children go wild with flying their kites! 
It was a fun experience for the children which will hopefully inspire some super creative writing over the next couple of weeks.
