Try rebooting your iPad. Link-> Restart your iPad - Apple Support


When in small keyboard mode, the 2 finger spread is the only option to return the onscreen keyboard to full size.


Make sure both fingers are on the keyboard before you start spreading them. If done correctly, when you start spreading them, the keyboard should turn into just a gray rectangle while you spread. Remove your fingers once the grey rectangle filled the bottom of the screen.
