Active learning

In Junior Infants we are very busy doing lots of active learning! We have been developing our fine motor skills by doing some manipulative activities like cutting, drawing, building using blocks, measuring in the sand area, using play dough, etc. 






We are also developing our imaginations and our skills of co-operation and conversation by engaging in collaborative activities, such as jigsaws, role-play and playing in small world areas.

Dina School

We had 2 very special visitors in our classroom today - Wally and Dina from Dina Schools! We learned that Dina is the principal of Dina Schools and she wanted to see how well we knew the golden rules of our school. We showed how good we are at showing five and using a quiet hand. We are looking forward to Wally and Dina's weekly visits to Múinteoir Ailish's classroom!

We also find time for some fun too... Look at our funny faces...
