/ Áiléar We had great fun
playing hurling with Johnny from Lucan Sarsfields.
South Dublin County
Council very kindly gave us 2 Beech Trees to plant for National Tree
Week. Brendan told us lots of interesting facts, like hurly sticks are
made from Oak Trees. Jerry, the Park Ranger, told us how to care for
our new trees. We helped plant the trees.
Wow, this shovel is heavy!
Look at the damage done to the trees by rabbits.
Put your back into it, we're almost finished!
We made Mardi Gras
masks with Julie. Mardi Gras means Fat Tuesday. Fat Tuesday is also
known as pancake Tuesday. Yum, yum.
We celebrated Martin
Luther King Day. We learned all about him and we wrote our own 'I have
a dream' speeches. In science we did
some fab mixing experiments. We mixed paint to get different colours.
Did you know yellow and red make orange? We mixed blue and
red and we got......can you guess? We mixed lots of
things with water, like smarties, sugar and oil.
We also mixed vinegar
and bread soda. We imaged we were
explorers and wrote our own adventure stories. Look out Indiana Jones! We made New Year's
Resolutions. Lets hope we can keep them. We made cave paintings
using tea bags to stain the paper first. Our paintings are based on
the Altameria Caves in Spain. We had a great time
at the Science Show with Declan. We got to take part in lots of experiments.
We did some cool art work on the artist of the month - Constantine Brancusi. We looked at his most famous pieces of work - The Kiss, Bird in Space and The Prayer. We also looked at the Romanian text Siobhan had on her display. Siobhan came into Denise's class to do some really fun clay work.
Julie's class dressed up for Halloween. Don't they look spooky?
......and pretty too.
Arrrragh me hearties!!!
Liz helped Julie's class to make colcannon for Halloween. They peeled the potatoes.....
......and chopped the scallions.
The girls in Denise's class sang and acted out their favourite song - 'Do you ears hang low?'
We created this amazing Autumn display using real leaves and collage art work.
We celebrated Diwali by making mosaics using crepe paper.
We were writing all about ourselves in Irish with Denise.
We wrote what we thought of each other on flower petals. It was so nice to read lovely things about ourselves, written by our friends.
