The Shoe Garden

As part of Challenge to Change we made a shoe garden. We did the planting a few weeks ago, we let them grow in the classroom and then we noved them to the garden.






Easter

We had so much fun on the day of the Easter holidays.  We made Easter baskets and iced some buns with chocolate icing to put into our baskets. We also learned a dance to the song 'Up Town Funk'. We did it flash mob style! The rest of the school got a great surprise when we all stood up put on our shades and busted some moves in the hall!!!!

Little Beings

During our religion lessons we have been listening to stories about the Little Beings and all the difficult situations they get themselves into. Teacher decided that for art we would make the little beings. We had never seen a picture of them so we had to use our imaginations.







Magnets






We did an experiment to see which magnet was the strongest by seeing which magnet held the longest paper clip chain.





Just Dance!


It's February and we're still doing Just Dance for Kids every morning! We're dancing to Michael Jackson's song ABC in these photos. We all have our favourite songs we like to dancing to.

January

Happy New Year! and what a start we've had to 2015. Scoil Mhuire's New Year's resolution is to be fitter so we are all moving more than we ever have before in school! Every morning we start of the day by doing  Just Dance for Kids. It is so much fun. We're also doing short exercises for a few minutes once a week- jumping jacks, jogging on the spot, hopping on one leg, it's tiring but so good for our bodies.




We've also stared reading to the Junior Infants, it's great fun. We prepare a book each fortnight and read it to the children in Junior Infants on a Friday
