Mrs Gillian Lawlor’s 2nd class created some Halloween slime in a science lesson n 20th October 2020. It was a hands on experience, not for the faint hearted!

Our school made a huge effort during Maths Week 2020 from October 12th-16th. Classes went outside with Maths Eyes searching for maths in the environment. They used number fans to show numbers from stories. They combined maths with art and with PE and English. 

Halloween Aistear in Senior Infants in Ms Sarah Dinan’s Senior Infants during October 2020. Children experimented with coloured water mixing potions, they did role play in the Home corner and created potions on the blackboard and listed the ingredients. Children made scary things from recycled goods in an art corner, played in the small world and constructed a lab or a witches house in the LEGO construction section of the class. It was great fun and not too scary at all!

Aistear photos from Ms Sarah Dinan’s Senior Infants on the topic of The Little Red Hen. Stations were: Drama, acting out the story. Lego, building a windmill. Play dough, making characters from the story. Small world, using farm animals and a torn map. Oats and seeds, where children find hidden characters and seeds within oats abs have fun with magnifying glasses ans funnels. We are very careful that all equipment is cleaned daily or brand new in the case of the oats. Ms Dinan, thank you for taking on Aistear in these difficult times.
