Ms Hickey's class love maths stations!!!



We practiced our counting, adding, matching and pattern making! :)

During maths stations the children reinforce their learning through a variety of fun activities. Each group moves to a different table after 10 minutes. The activities include making patterns using pegs and pegboards, matching number and picture cards, counting objects and making simple addition sums. Maths stations work really well for this class and they absolutely love maths as they are learning but having fun at the same time :)

Ms McHale's Class went on a Circle Hunt

We have been learning all about the circle this month.  We have played circle games, done some circle art and crafts, and cut and coloured circles.  On a rainy day we decided we would check how much we learned so we went out on a walk around the school to try and find all the circles around the school.  We had to look every where.  Some were high up and some were low down, but we had our brain boxes turned on and we found loads.  Here are some of the circles we found.

Autumn Leaf Hunt

Today was a lovely sunny day so Ms McHale's class went out for an Autumn Leaf Hunt. We are very lucky to have such a lovely school with so much nature around us. On our walk we found lots of Autumn Leaves, coloured red, brown, yellow and orange. We also found lots of conkers and chestnuts under the horse chestnut tree. 
We had a great time on our walk.
