Múinteoir Clare Ann's 1st class

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas here in 1A! We all helped to put up and decorate our Christmas tree. 

We loved playing on the new equipment on the infant yard. Look at the pictures of the ice we found on the slide. We observed the ice melting and the time it took for it to turn from a solid into a liquid. 

Today in out Maths Team Teaching we used decks of cards to play different addition games. Our favourite game was 'GO FISH!' We had to make pairs that added up to 10.

 

In our second science experiment this week we made a chocolate cake. Following on from our butter experiement, we focused in on the different changes which occured to the mixture, as various ingredients were added. We discussed the different ways in which the texture, taste, smell and appearance of the mixture changed throughout the various stages of the experiment.
