We had some fun experimenting with magnets.

We have learning all about the Stone Age. We turned our tables on their side so we could image we were drawing on walls just like they did in the Stone Age.

We designed calendars for the New Year. We put in some important dates including birthdays.

We tried to solve some tricky tangram puzzles! In the beginning we thought they would be easy, but it proved difficult to try and fit all of the shapes onto the square. We had to make sure there were no overlaps or gaps. We felt so happy when we solved them!

While learning about water, we also learned a song by The Beatles, called Octopus' Garden! Click on the video to hear our singing!

In October, we learned all about Water! We investigated whether some classroom objects would sink or float and found some fascinating results. Then, we used some crayons, sponges and watercolour paint to make 'Under the Sea' pictures!

We have explored lots of the features of Autumn and learned about all the changes that are happening at this time of year. We used coloured paper, black paper and paint to make some Autumn silhouette scenes. 

We have had a busy month this September settling back into school. Have a look at what we have been up to!

We have been reading some old Irish myths and legends, and made some pictures based on the story 'The Salmon of Knowledge'. We used thread and glue to make the outline of the fish, then covered them with tinfoil and coloured with Sharpies. We love how colourful they are!
