Baking

We have been busy baking lots of delicious treats in our class. We read the recipe and gather all of the ingredients that we need for our recipe. Then we work together to follow the different steps in the method to prepare the batter. When we have prepared the ingredients, we finally put our batter into the oven and wait patiently for our delicious snack. Look at our yummy cookies that we recently made and decorated!

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.
