Drama in Senior Infants

Today we pretended we lived in a village and we all had different jobs to do to provide for the people. Some of us were farmers who grew fruit and vegetables and provided milk for the making of cheese, cream and butter. There were woodcutters who had the heavy duty task of chopping up logs for our fires. The bakers kept us in bread and cakes, while the weavers made warm clothes and blankets. It's a busy village with plenty for doing. Can you guess from our pictures what tasks we were miming??

Making Instruments

We made many different types of instruments.
We made drums, rainmakers, guitars, shakers and shakers with bells.
Now we have our own instruments and we can use them whenever we want!

Computer pictures in Senior Infants

We created these pictures on the computer using 'Splosh'. We simply love using Splosh and we are all really good at using the programme now. Have a look at our beautiful pictures. 












Valentine's Art in Senior Infants

We made these Valentine wreaths by cutting out lots of small hearts and sticking them on to the outer rim of a paper plate. Teacher attached some ribbon for us so that we could hang them up.
These fridge magnets turned out great. We coloured in the cute teddy bear and then stuck on a picture of ourselves. Teacher laminated them for us and attached some magnetic tape.
These Valentine bookmarks turned out great. 
 We made Mr Valentine by cutting out a selection of hearts of different sizes (small, medium and large). We attached them to a long black strip, leaving a space between each heart. We added some detail to each face.
We also made a selection of Valentine cards and learned a Valentine rhyme.




 We coloured in a Valentine Poster.
