St Patrick’s Day Art

The Senior Infants have focused on the theme of St. Patrick’s day over the past few weeks, learning all the traditions related to the day.

In art, we made rainbows by painting a paper plate and cutting them. We then added a pot of gold and some shamrocks for decoration. This also fitted in nicely we Lá Fhéile Pádraig in Gaeilge and it was a great opportunity to use the colours and Irish words in an art lesson!

Art- Salmon of Knowledge 🐟

When learning about the famous landmarks of Ireland, we came across many myths and legends attached to them. The students particularly enjoyed the myth of the Giants Causeway and the Salmon of Knowledge. In art, the students created their own Salmon of Knowledge! 🐟 First, the students painted on bubble wrap and printed it onto the card. This created a water effect. The students then designed the fish and used other materials to add more detail to their work.

Art- Pointillism

For the past for weeks we have been learning about the Supermarket in Aistear. We decided to link this with art and created wonderful pieces of fruit only using cotton buds and paint. All the students did a fantastic job! This was new way to try out painting and art for the students.

Egypt Dioramas 🇪🇬

Egypt is a very interesting country to focus on and can be integrated throughout the curriculum, from English to SESE, Art and Drama. The students created fabulous dioramas (shoebox art) focused on Egypt!
