“Work hard, be kind and amazing things will happen.”
Conrad O’Brien
First Class loved creating their pinch pots from clay. They did a beautiful job painting them and adding a top gloss coat. Here they are hard at work!
After their wonderful performance of The Little Red Hen First Class tried a little baking of their own. They made a list of ingredients and wrote the method and we set to work baking a Madeira cake. They did a super job baking and were happy to taste test the cake!
We have embraced all things festive in First Class in the past few weeks! The children enjoyed decorating cookies and brushed up on their counting skills during a Snowman Drive with 2nd Class! There was great excitement when Santa paid a visit to Springdale on Wednesday! We enjoyed a cosy PJ Day on Thursday. The dance moves were pretty cool during our disco! Merry Christmas everyone! We hope it is magical!
First Class were learning about 2D shapes recently. They enjoyed working collaboratively to create a dinosaur made from semi-circles.
First Class drew their own pumpkins and experimented with different types of lines to decorate them.
First Class have been enjoying learning some new songs as Gaeilge. Here they are singing Ag Dul Ar Scoil (Going to School).
They have learned about entry strokes, joining strokes and exit strokes and are paying attention to letter size. The children are checking their pencil grip and posture for writing. The children have written letter pairs on their whiteboards and in their workbooks. Well done First Class!
