Food Dudes at Home

5/28/2020

 
Before we said 'goodbye' in March our school had been taking part in the Food Dudes programme. This programme aims to teach children the importance of Healthy Eating. To encourage the boys to continue eating healthy while at home we set them a few fun activities to participate in. 
The first of these was a sensory guessing game  where  the boys had to guess what  fruit or vegetable was in the mystery box. 
The second activity the boys were asked to complete was a taste test using their senses. Here  the boys used all their senses when tasting a piece of fruit or vegetable and recorded the sensory characteristic of the fruit/vegetable.
For an art activity the boys were encouraged to use fruit to create pieces of art.  The creativity that the boys used was astounding.

Phonics in Junior Infants

​This week Junior Infants moved on to y & x sounds in phonics. The boys did so well learning this new sound independently at home. They learned the new sound, went on word hunts to find things with the sound and they learned to write the letters. Here are pictures of Daniil letter writing, Liam on y & x hunts. Wiktor found x words also and Josh made y with his playdoh.

Junior Infants did art at home last Friday. They were asked to draw two fun things they had done at home in the last week. We saw pictures of boys playing in paddling pools, flying kites, cycling their bikes, visiting donkeys, and playing with their brothers. Beautiful pictures boys well done.

Daniil sent a beautiful picture of summer.
