Busy March in Mr Smyth’s 4th Class

Its been a busy March in Mr Smyth’s 4th Class.

In Art the children are working with Fabric and Fibre creating colourful pom poms and jazzy bracelets.

In Maths, they have been working on chance– throwing dice and flipping coins and working out the probability of the outcomes.

In 3-D Shape, they learned about the Euler’s Rule discovered by Leonhard Euler in 1758, a formula in 3D geometry that helps them work out the number of edges of a 3-D shape when they know the number of faces and number of vertices.

On World Book Day the children took part in a World Book Day quiz:

5th Class – Fabric and Fibre in Art

5th Class had great fun creating their own bracelets today, using simple cardboard looms and colourful yarn. They carefully set up their disks, choosing vibrant colour combinations before weaving the threads in a repeating pattern. This hands-on activity helped develop fine motor skills, patience, and creativity. Each finished bracelet was unique, and many children decided to take them home and gift them to family and friends.

Story Sacks

Ms. Fitzpatrick’s Class have had lots of fun reading from our story sacks. We listened to Winnie Wagtail and made a fabulous art board to celebrate World Book Day. This week, we read Itchy Bear and enjoyed naming all the animals in the story!
