November


 During November we were learning about the People of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in history. After learning about Mesopotamia and the Sumerian people and their trades, the class made clay pots. The students also liked learning about how the Sumerian people’s began to keep track of things using symbols and pictures. We will finish off the topic by painting the pots in natural colours.๐ŸŸค⚫️

Hands on Maths ๐Ÿ“

 Using hands on resources are a really important part of maths. They help us link maths problems to real life while also broadening our minds to find new ways to solve problems. By using manipulatives such as blocks, matchsticks, cubes, lollipop sticks or drawing on whiteboards, it helps us visualise problems that sometimes are hard to understand! 

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.

Ardrahan Mausoleum Trip ๐Ÿ“ธ

Friday was such a fantastic day that the students took a little trip down to the Mausoleum in Ardrahan. Firstly, this involved a little walk in the nice weather ๐Ÿšถ‍♀️☀️ When at the mausoleum the students looked at the different architecture and learned about its history.  It is great for the children to learn about their local history as well as history on a wider scale.
