Welcome to Ms. Lowe’s Junior Infants!
Our first few weeks in school have been very busy. We have settled in well into our new school and have been working very hard.
October
Halloween: Last Friday we had our Halloween party. We played lots of Halloween games with a few surprises along the way! A spooktacular time was had by all!
Aistear: In Aistear this month our theme is Autumn. We have been participating in fun activities associated with this theme.
Gaelic: Junior Infants were excited to begin Gaelic this month with Jonathan. They are learning lots of new skills like catching, kicking and striking. I am proud to introduce you to our new Gaelic team!!
Maths Week: We also had Maths Week this month. The children enjoyed lots of Maths activities including a shape scavenger hunt. Special shout out to our senior buddies in Mr. Glynn’s 4th class for assisting us with our shape hunt. Lots of fun and learning had by all.
September
- Geography: Last week for our geography lesson we went on a school walkabout. On our walk we were able to see where different rooms are located in our new school. These included the principal’s office, classrooms, playground and the P.E hall. It was great fun!
- Art: ‘Up up and Away’ For our first Art lesson of the year we painted hot air balloons using different colours. Just like us each of our hot air balloons are unique! They are proudly displayed outside our classroom door.
- P.E: Last week in P.E the class took part in an orienteering lesson. Everyone was split up into teams and had to find pictures of animals under various cones. The team who had found each of the five animals first were the winners.
