This term Junior Infants have been learning all about the Toy shop, toys and games from the past,Tom crean and the weather station. The children took part in Aistear activities based on these themes such as making toys from playdough, playing hopscotch and skipping, creating Tom’s ships using tangrams, weather sorting, cutting Tom Crean pictures and in role-play all the children became shop keepers, customers & weather forecasters.
As part of our weather theme the children learned about the thermometer and a rain gauge. The children also made yummy rice Krispie buns as part of procedural writing. They made lots of beautiful art creations: Splash umbrellas, Valentine’s handprints and beautiful snowdrops to name a few. It has been a very busy term for Junior Infants.
