1st and 2nd class were replaced with witches, warlocks, minions and zombies at the end of October this year as the children dressed up for Halloween. It was a fun end to a busy month. The children covered Autumn and Halloween in Aistear, spending their afternoons on nature hunts, digging in the sandpit, creating clay hedgehogs and then making witches potions, haunted houses and creating Halloween dress up fashion shows. In Maths we were working on days, months and calendars in 2nd class while both classes were concentrating on their procedural writing! We learned about India including the Taj Mahal and henna tattoos. As Gaeilge, bhíomar ag déanamh ar scoil agus Oiche Shamhna while in our PE we concentrated on outdoor and adventure with a few GAA sessions with Anais thrown in too. The children learned new techniques for drawing pumpkins, bats and spider webs too with lots of spooky art leaving our classroom before Halloween. Well done everyone!
