We enjoyed some extra Maths activities during Maths Week. We used our Maths eyes to notice shapes, colours, patterns and numbers all around us. Great work boys!

Maths Week
October 17, 2024
We have been very busy in Prefab 9 for Maths Week 2024. We played some number games with cubes, a dice game called sinking ships, did a number trail in the yard, played a number game called driving cars for PE, played bingo and also estimated and recorded with skittles. We’ve had a great week learning how maths can be fun inside and outside of the classroom.

Autumn Trees

We painted autumn trees. We used corks to print leaves in red, orange, yellow, brown and green. Our finished pieces turned out beautifully and are all so unique.
Picasso Inspired Art
October 11, 2024
Huge effort went into our Picasso inspired Frankenstein pictures. We used the style of cubism often used by Picasso to create our beautiful creations.
Autumn Walk
October 8, 2024
We have been learning about autumn. We discussed signs of autumn such as the weather getting colder, the days getting shorter and some leaves changing colours and falling from trees. We learned the difference between deciduous and evergreen trees. We named some vegetables, fruits and nuts that we see in autumn such as pumpkins, blackberries, horse chestnuts and acorns. We also learned about some animals that are busy preparing to hibernate and discussed the difference between animals that hibernate in winter and animals that become dormant in winter. We took our learning outdoors and went on a walk to the Phoenix Park to look for signs of autumn.
