Senior Infants Room 4: Learning in the Sun

What wonderful weather we are having. We took advantage of the nice weather to conducted a field study in geography. We were learning about play places, keeping them tidy and safe so we decided to take a trip to the playground. We also had time to play while we were there too.   In maths we were learning about capacity. We had great fun measuring how many jugs/spoons/ cups it took to fill a container. We learned that just because a container is the tallest, it doesn’t always hold the most. Some containers are short but wide and they hold a lot of water too.

Senior Infants Room 4: The Post Office

We loved learning all about the Post Office. We had great fun writing and delivering  letters, all around the school, during playtime. In maths, we learned about heavy and light parcels. We learned how to use a balance weighing scales, it reminded us of a see-saw. We read a story called the Jolly Postman and learned about all the different Fairytales in the story. We enjoyed listening to some Fairytale songs by “Debbie and Friends” during lunchtime. Here is a link to the channel.  Our trip to the Post Office was amazing! We had so much fun walking down to the shopping centre, seeing the postbox and handing in our letters. Then we got to go underground and into the secret room with all the security Guards. They allowed each of us have a turn controlling the cameras. A big thank you to Edelle’s Mother and Grandmother for coming on the trip with us. Have a look at our pictures...

Senior Infants Room 4: World Book Day

We had so much fun on World Book Day. We loved dressing up. The fashion show and book sale were great fun. Our favorite part of the day was when Stickman came into our classroom to read us his story. Stickman looked really like our principal, Ms Dorothy!! Take a look at our pictures here....
