September in Junior Infants A

 We’ve had a great first month in Junior Infants A! All the boys and girls have settled in so well and are learning lots already.

In Literacy we have been doing lots of phonological awareness activities and learning all about syllables, onset and rime and rhyming words. The class are having lots of fun playing all the games.

In maths we have been sorting by different criteria such as size, colour, shape. The class have become very confident when doing these activities.

For Friendship Week 3rd class came to play with the junior infants which was lovely to see. We also had visitors from 5th class come to play and read with the class one morning.

For Aistear time the theme for September was the home corner. The boys and girls enjoyed playing with the kitchen. They are loving building different types of homes and playing together. We have moved onto the supermarket and toy shop now.

And finally, we start each day with fine motor activities such as threading, cutting and playdoh.
