As ever we have been busy bees in the Junior Room, learning lots of new things and completing colourful work! In Play we learned all about The Fire Station.
We discussed fire safety in SPHE and learned how to call the fire brigade if we ever need to.
In SESE we learned about music from around the world, tin whistles from Ireland, bagpipes from Scotland, castanets from Spain, djembe drums from Africa and didgeridoos from Australia. We listened and identified each instrument playing. We also learned all about the composer Mozart and listened to some of his music too!
We also heard the legend of The Giant’s Causeway in History and drew our favourite part of the story.
In English we are learning more sounds in Junior Infants, we learned the letter sound ‘l’ last week.
In Maths Junior Infants learned all about items which were heavy and light.
Our topic in Gaeilge was ‘Bia’ and we know lots of different foods in Irish now, we drew food in our own Bosca Lón (lunchbox) in Art to go with the theme.
We have also learned the letter ‘u’ recently and to go with this we created colourful umbrellas and rain showers in Art.
Finally we continue to learn new skills in GAA each week, we’ve been doing football skills for the last few weeks.
Well done boys and girls, ye have been very busy!
