Maths Trail for Maths Week!

Senior Infants did a Maths Trail  around the school to celebrate Maths week 2019! We counted, sorted, compared and looked for different patterns, measured lengths, widths and heights. It was great fun!

Baby photos!

Today, as part of History, we discussed changes that have happened from when we were babies to now. The boys examined their baby photos and identified how they have changed. We discussed how their likes and dislikes have changed also. I have now returned any baby photos that children brought in. Thanks for sending these in.

Maths Week 2019

As part of Maths Week, the boys will be given lots of different Maths challenges and activities to do.
Today, they had to estimate how many pom-poms were in the jar. Then we counted them!
