Maths Trail in 3rd class (2)

This month 3rd class (2) completed a maths trail around the school. We learned about all of the different shapes, patterns and numbers in our school environment. As we walked around the school, we recorded the number of classrooms, windows and doors our school has. We also investigated the length and width of our own classroom, along with the distance to the main door of the school in metres. It was a great way to see how maths works outside the classroom. Take a look at our photos below.

History – Archaeology in 3rd Class (2)

We are really lucky to be undertaking an eight week workshop with Mark from the school of Irish Archaeology. Our first two sessions involved heading out to the ‘Big-Dig’ area in our school to excavate the site. We really enjoyed it. Take a look at all of the artefacts we discovered.
