The Estate Agents

We have been very busy in The Estate Agents for the last three weeks. We have been buying and selling all kinds of houses and learning lots of new vocabulary along the way.

In our art lessons we designed some of our own houses.

Fun with Numeracy

The children have been enjoying playing educational Numeracy games on Topmarks. There are some useful games to help with number recognition, ordering and sequencing numbers and addtion.
Why not try some of the games out at home? :)

Our Christmas Play

On Thursday December 14^th Ms. Gorby’s and Ms Lynch’s class went to the stage to do their Christmas Play for the parents.

First the class changed into their costumes in the classroom and then had their faces painted.

Next they sang the songs and said their lines to different characters on the stage.

Lastly the children got sweets and changed out of their costumes.

The children were happy , excited and tired after their play. 

Our Science Experiment on Light

Last week Ms. Lynch’s class wanted to see if things were transparent or opaque in our classroom.

First we traced a sun on the tissue paper. We found out that tissue is good for tracing because it is transparent.

Next we traced a sun on the paper. We found out that the paper isn’t transparent.

Then we traced the sun on tinfoil. Tin foil is bad for tracing because it is not transparent.

Lastly we used greaseproof for tracing the sun. We found out that greaseproof is good for tracing because it is transparent. 

The Maths Trail

Last week Ms. Lynch’s class went to the yard to do Maths outside.

First they went to the senior infant yard. We held hands to see how many people it took to fill the mural.

Next we took steps to see how long the basketball court was.

Lastly we wrote numbers of the cars and the colours of the cars. 

We enjoyed the maths trail. 

First Class Pasta Frames

We were busy on Friday attaching pasta to our page before spraying them with sliver glitter. Our names are inscribed on the inside. We will hang them up outside our classroom this week.

Thursday's Terrific Theatre

Our class really enjoyed the puppet show this week. There were plenty of jokes but our favourite one was about Ms. Leonard. We liked the big bad wolf the best.
