We love Mindfulness Monday at RAPS! Today was lots of fun - some of us made Christmas cards, some of us played Top Trumps and Uno! Some of us used our junk modelling to construct and some of us made some stunning stockings! Some of us practised our handwriting formations with shiny gel pens… and some of us decided to change our reading corner! Ask us what we got up to this morning!

Christmas has arrived at RAPS!
Year 2 are absolutely loving drawing their own Hundertwasser-inspired towns, filling the room with bright colours, wiggly lines, lots of laughter and showcasing their school value of creativity! We cannot wait to finish them next week. Ask us all about it!

We have been busy writing suspense narratives in Yr 2. Yesterday, we finished our narratives based on The Legend of Black Rock. The children then collaboratively edited these stories by correcting eachother's spellings and sentence structure. The children enjoyed being the teacher and marking work onto post-it notes.
In the next few days, our published work will appear on display in the classroom. Ask your child to see their work!

What fun in Year 2 this afternoon when we used a map of RAPS' downstairs corridors to find treasure! Children worked in pairs, using landmarks and directional clues to guide their search. The activity encouraged teamwork and map-reading skills but also... we love a treasure hunt! Ask us all about it!
Lines and scripts have been sent home for the Christmas Play. Please practise these at home. If your child loses their script, please let your teacher know and they will print you a new copy.
