It has been a week of alien designing, planet investigating and space exploration in Junior Infants! It is fantastic to see everyone learning and developing new skills.
We talked about the vast expanse of space and how much exploring there still is to do. We read the books, ‘Aliens Love Underpants!’ ‘Q Pootle 5’ and ‘Albie and the Space Rocket’ and used our imaginations to think of the wonderful creatures that might share the universe with us!
We made pictures of the Solar System and used the rockets and puppets we’d made in previous weeks to go into space. We even made launchpads and space stations to go with the rockets!
On Wednesday it was Grandparent’s day and it was a privilege to have so many visitors to. The children really enjoyed showing everyone their work and their classrooms too!
In maths we continued to look at the concepts of more, less and the same, whilst in phonics we looked at the ‘h’ sound.
