Spring is here

We have a new theme in Senior Infants that we are learning about : Houses and Homes.


We have been exploring all the different types of homes around the world that people live in. 

Our imaginations have been put to the test as we conjured up our 'Imaginary Dream Homes'.


In Science we have been learning about the materials that are used to build houses.

During Aistear we have been building our own houses for the 3 little pigs in our construction site, we think the bricks are the best materials to use! 



 We have some very efficient builders in Rm 4 !!! 















The Small World and Finger gym stations have also been very creative , have a look at some of our amazing home designs:

A Winter Wonderland

Room 4 during  December and January- what a busy place! 

We were busy being Santa's little helpers in his workshop during Aistear. We were so excited the first morning we found the workshop open . . .



Our trip to the Post box was lots of fun - we wrote letters to Santa and posted them in a big brown envelope. 




We were learning all about the Post Office in January, we loved writing letters and posting them in our classroom.  Our writing is really improving in Room 4. 








In January we looked at Winter Weather. We really enjoyed making lots of winter art , here is a look at some of the Winter Scenes we created :
