Happy Halloween from Junior & Senior Infants!
October has been another busy month for Junior and Senior Infants. Check out what we’ve been up to!
We learned all about the vet in Aistear this month. We had great fun making animals in junk art, constructing a dog kennel from polydrons and making a surgery in construction as well as acting out in role play, making animals from play dough & working with water.
Autumn is now in full swing and the pupils have been learning lots about this time of year. We made colourful trees with cotton buds and paint and went on a walk to see all the things happening in nature at this time. We learned all about Oak trees and made some bark rubbings.
We were delighted to welcome Paddy Madden to our school on Friday 20th Oct. He taught us all about different areas of nature. We looked at pond animals, mammals, hedgerows and insects.
Senior Infants were revising their numbers and used play dough to shape the number, counted it out in cubes, as well as putting the correct number of apples on the tree!
In SPHE we learned all about different feelings and drew our own happy faces 🙂
Halloween is upon us and we made Spooky Pumpkins and coloured in scary pictures.
We also made some trees on crepe paper using autumn colours. The light shone through them when we put them up on the windows.
To celebrate Halloween we had fun dressing up in scary, spooky costumes and making rice krispie monsters!
