In Prefab 9 this week we are learning the sound ‘s’. The boys could look at home for things that begin with s. We have created an ‘s’ table in our classroom with items that begin with s.

We have also been spending more time on making sets and sorting and matching.

We are very lucky because a librarian is coming to visit our class this week. We have prepared some questions to ask her about her work.

We are learning ‘ag léamh, ag scríobh and ag gáire in Irish.

Could you send in a photo of your son when he was a baby (with his name written on the back) as we will be using this for our work on the theme ‘Myself’ in History. I will return these when we are finished using them.

Many thanks.

As part of our work on autumn we read a book about hedgehogs . We then created spiky hedgehogs using crayons and paint.

Today we did Maths stations in Prefab 9! The boys spent 10 minutes at each station doing various maths activities. They made patterns with beads, patterns on peg boards, played a dice game with cubes, made maths jigsaws and played a counting game on the interactive whiteboard. The boys had great fun doing these hands on activities.
