We worked individually to create potential designs for our Halloween Door. Once we had designed them, we looked at them all before taking part in a secret vote. Check out our winning design, hopefully you got to see it at the Halloween Party.<\/p>\n<p>We also wrote our own \u2018spook-tactular\u2019 monster poems! Have a read of some of our favourite verses:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I thought I saw a monster<\/p>\n<p>Underneath my toys<\/p>\n<p>Her fur was soft<\/p>\n<p>And she made lots of noise!

G.)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Before we knew it, Bonfire Night was over, and we remembered the brave soldiers on Remembrance Day. We learnt about the war, where poppies come from and how they are made. We made our own poppies before falling silent to remember what the soldiers had done for us.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>This week we have been celebrating Diwali. To start with we had a visitor come in to talk to us about how she celebrates Diwali and she taught us some very impressive Bollywood moves! We have learnt all about Diwali and the importance of the celebrations. To celebrate we have made clay Diva Lamps to represent the \u201cfestival of lights\u2019, designed and drawn Rangoli Patterns with chalk and learnt the traditional Diwali story of Rama and Sita.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1.jpg\"><img data-attachment-id=\"25067\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/provolearning.com\/blog\/school-news\/look-what-weve-been-celebrating-in-year-2\/attachment\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1.jpg?fit=1033%2C698\" data-orig-size=\"1033,698\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1.jpg?fit=300%2C203\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1.jpg?fit=900%2C608\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-25067 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1.jpg?resize=600%2C405\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1.jpg?resize=900%2C608 900w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1.jpg?resize=200%2C135 200w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1.jpg?resize=300%2C203 300w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1.jpg?resize=768%2C519 768w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/provolearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/yr-2-celebrations-nov-2018-1.jpg?w=1033 1033w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Look what we\u2019ve been celebrating!
