Aistear- Autumn

Autumn Aistear was full of fun and exploration. 

We used our Autumn checklists to check off things we found and used the tuff tray to design an Autumn tree. 

The Senior Infants produced many other creative things such as nature parks (at the Lego station) along with Autumn wands, birds and nests at the art station. 

Using the pegboards we created leaves, trees and lots of different patterns. This aims to improve fine motor skills. Finally, at the sensory station the students enjoyed playing with the sand box which was full of Autumn items.

Science Week ๐Ÿงช

The students in 3rd class got hands on this Science Week.  It was  a great opportunity to integrate science into many other subjects. For example, in history we learned the history of science and inventors. We also read about the transition of transport ‘From horses to horsepower’ ๐ŸŽ and inventors such as Marie Curie.  Having learned about the history of transport, we then imagined what the future of transport will look like. All students created excellent futuristic cars ๐Ÿš— . Well done to all!  In Art we experimented with colours, mixing primary colours to create new colours and shades. ๐Ÿ”ต๐ŸŸก๐Ÿ”ด We also created a lava lamp as part of a science experiment.  What you need: water, jar, vegetable oil, food colouring, steradent (or other fizzy tablet)!
