Litter picking

12/12/2022

​On the 23rd of November our class got to have a turn at litter picking. Each class took part as part of the green school committee’s plans to make our school a greener place. It was funny and a bit gross! We found lots of rubbish, include more than 20 old tissues, YUCK. We enjoyed getting out of class for a while to have fun and be helping our school at the same time!

Dojo Party

12/12/2022

As a class, we have been working together to earn enough Dojo points to get to have our first Dojo points! There are many ways to earn them, from beating records as a class, being extra helpful, or working well as team! For our party, the class had to reach 1,200 points in total. Everyone paid 30 points for their party tickets, which meant we were able to have some popcorn, watch a movie and have extra Golden Time! The party was extra special because Shane, who had been working in our class as part of teacher training, got to take part as well, It was so much fun, hopefully we can have another one soon!

On Tuesday November 8th, our class was lucky enough to get to take part in a biodiversity workshop. We learned all about native species to Ireland, types of animals and their habitats,  and also explored the wildlife around our school and how we can look after it. Someone in our class even managed to find a four leaf clover! It was super interesting, we're so grateful to Judith for teaching us!

Hi everyone! We have had such a busy time in 4th Class, its hard to keep track of all the fun things we've been up to!
We learned all about sound in science. There were lots of cool things we discovered, such as how sound is made and how it travels. One of the experiments we did was create phones out of string and cups, and tried them around the school to see if they worked! Check out the photos of us in action.

Our Trip to Tallaght Library

On Tuesday September 13th, we had the opportunity to go on a fun trip to Tallaght Library for playdough workshop to celebrate Roald Dahl Day! Our class entered a raffle for a spot and we won! Everyone was so excited to go on a trip. We made our way to the library on the luas, which was really fun! 
Once we got to the library, we met with staff from Everyone for Science, then got straight to work! We made chocolate playdough and had to carefully measure all the ingredients.
Once we had made the dough, we used it to make all sorts of chocolate treats and shapes! Once the workshop was over, we got to keep the playdough to take home! It was a really great day.

Welcome back everyone! We are so excited for a new school year. To start, I just want to highlight some essential information for the year ahead.
★ Homework is assigned on a Monday morning and is corrected on Fridays in school.
★Our PE days are Tuesday and Thursday so please ensure your child is dressed comfortably and appropriately for activity!
★Please make sure your child has a change of clothes and raingear in school in case of bad weather. There's nothing worse than having to sit in wet socks!

Term 3!

6/17/2022

0 Comments

 
We have had a really busy last term learning and having fun. We hope that everybody has a super fun and relaxing summer break! Check out some of what we have been up to over the last couple of months!

Board Games!

We have spent a couple of lessons inventing and making our very own board games! They are really cool. 

Our School Tour

We really enjoyed our school tour this term! We went to the National Sports Centre and had a great time being star athletes for the day! We got to try so many activities!

Sports Day

We had a brilliant time at sports day! It was so nice to be able to see all of the senior children and to try so many stations and then to enter the exciting race!

Our School Opening Ceremony

We were so proud of ourselves and our school during our opening ceremony! We made beautiful photo art sculptures with First Class and we did a brilliant poetry recital in front of a live audience. The mayor of south Dublin complimented our poems! It was a great ceremony and we loved the activities in the afternoon.

Bake Sale

We loved going to the school bake sale this term!

Hot Air Balloon Art

We made some cool hot air balloon art by painting sky backgrounds first and then we used paper to make 3D balloons. 

Picnics

We have been enjoying the summer weather and had some nice picnics on the grass! 

Oil Pastels 

We used oil pastels to recreate nighttime scenes of the fascinating northern lights. 

Drama

We have being doing lots of drama in English and Irish! In Irish, we acted out a short story and in English, we created short ads to advertise our new imaginary toys that we invented!

End of Term 2!

Wow it is the end of term 2! We have had such a busy few months in our classroom. Here are some snippets from our term.

Dublinia School Trip

On April 1st, we went on our first school trip in two years! We travelled on the Luas into town to visit Dublinia museum. There, we learned more about the Vikings and Medieval times in Ireland. It was such good fun!

Gratitude Letters!

We learned all about the attitude of gratitude this term. It is important to feel grateful for all of the little things we have in our lives. We decided to write letters to people who are special to us to thank them for different things. It was so nice to deliver our letters!

Pointillism Art

Earlier in the term, we learned about France during our Geography lessons and we incorporated our learning with our art lessons. We looked at some examples of pointillism art and created our own versions of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. 

Team Work.

We did a lot of work together this term. We helped each other with reading, writing, maths, gaeilge and other learning. We like to work in pairs and teams in our classroom. We are great at giving each other compliments about learning and tips to make learning even better. 

Reading and Writing

We have done some super reading and writing this term and have made some new displays in our library and corridor. 
What a super term! We are looking forward to term 3. We hope that everybody has a safe and fun spring break! :-)
