Second class enjoyed exploring shape and symmetry recently. We loved identifying symmetrical shapes and wanted to create our own symmetrical pictures. Below are a selection of images we made using our attribute blocks.
We also created our own symmetrical structures using Blue Blocks in our P.E. hall.
Second Class have been busy preparing for the school Christmas show by practising our song ‘Your Majesty’. We worked on perfecting our actions too. We were delighted to get to finally see the show for ourselves in a dress rehearsal on Monday. It was fantastic to see all the classes perform so well!
We’ve enjoyed getting our outfits on this week and performing for our families.
We’re looking forward to some more festive fun next week!!
We are having a fantastic last couple of weeks in 2nd Class.
We have been doing shared reading with our friends in Junior Infants. We also made some delicious oat biscuits from scratch. Mr Donnelly, *ahem, overdid a few in the oven but we all had one each and some to share afterwards!
And the Fun Day was super, as shown by an ice-cream treat above! Thanks to Ms Delaney, Ms Comerford and all who helped organise this school fundraiser.
This week we’ve been very busy in 2nd Class. We had a wonderful tour of Collins Barracks with a brilliant guide Clare. She showed us about the history of Gaelic Games as well as lots of other interesting historical facts!
We also went on a field trip to see what biodiversity we could find in Grangegorman park. We couldn’t resist a trip to the playground too of course!
In Maths, we have been continuing to learn about measurement and exploring mass and capacity with fruit, vegetables and water. Lots of fun!
2nd Class had a wonderful time at TU Dublin Grangegorman on Thursday. As part of the TU Dublin SPACEFest, we got to visit the Armagh Planetarium Mobile Observatory Dome. Inside we were shown around the Universe by our guide. We were amazed and got to ask lots of questions. Thanks to Ríona and Rok for facilitating.
2nd Class had so much fun with 6th Class this week, doing Maths games in Mr Flanagan’s room. We will miss our friends from 6th Class and wish them well next September 🙂
