Senior Infants

Senior Infants have had a really busy start to the new school year. We have been working intensively on their reading skills during our daily guided reading intervention.

“The ultimate goal of guided reading is to help children learn how to use independent reading strategies effectively” (Fountas and Pinnell 1996:2)

We have also thoroughly enjoyed our Aistear theme “The Ugly Duckling” for the month of October. We have made clay nests and eggs for mother Duck and we made beautiful swans out of paper plates and feathers.

 

Senior Infants had great fun at their teddy bear’s picnic.

Senior Infants took advantage of the fine weather on Friday to do some estimating and measuring outside in the Junior Yard.

Senior Infants have been very busy practicing their songs for their Christmas performance.
