Curriculum Information Term 2 25/26
Please find below a link to our Curriculum Information for Term 2:
Fireworks, Fireworks, Bonfire Night
We recently learned a song all about fireworks and Bonfire Night. After we had learned the words and the melody, we also learned how to follow a graphic score. This showed us pictures of percussion instruments to play and when to play them. We worked in small groups to play our instruments and then we had the chance to move round different music stations. In the video you can hear us singing the song and playing four different pieces of percussion – boomwhackers, tambourines, maracas and claves.
Week 2 Gymnastics
Balances, rolls and bunny hops
Term 2 PE – Gymnastics
This term, all pupils will be taking part in gymnastics, starting with mat skills and progressing to apparatus work. Gymnastics is a fantastic way for children to develop confidence, coordination, and strength while working at their own level.
Mat Skills Focus:
- Balances
- Jumps
- Rolls
- Handstands
- Cartwheels
Apparatus Focus:
- Pupils will explore different equipment setups
- They’ll be encouraged to create their own ways of moving from one side to the other
This approach supports creativity, problem-solving, and physical literacy.
Everybody loves this term in the gym, so I’m sure their will be plenty to talk about when they get home.
PE Reminder
Please ensure pupils:
- Come dressed appropriately on PE days
- Have appropriate footwear. Now that the weather is changing, footwear can be changed before PE.
- Have hair tied up
- Remove jewellery and watches before the session
