Junior infant autumn art

We made some fantastic pictures today. We used fabric and fibre to make trees and lots of colourful leaves.

Teachers' absolutely fantastic helpers did such an amazing job cleaning up that they even washed the paper plates :) :)

Teacher thought this was very funny for some reason ;)!!!

Humpty Dumpty

We are learning lots of rhymes in Junior Infants. Look at our lovely pictures. We put Humpty Dumpty back together again!

Pass the beat

Today we used the instruments for the first time. We found the beats that are in the names of all the children in our class. Some names have just one, and some have three beats. We played games like pass the beat and loud & soft. We practiced copying different beats before passing the beat one by one around the group.
We really enjoyed hiding an object and helping the seeker find it using loud and soft beats. The softer the beat, the further away the seeker is from the hiding place. The beat gets louder as the seeker gets closer to hidden object. We thought this was great fun.

Colour wheels

We have learned lots about mixing colours.  We know that mixing

red and blue make purple

yellow and red make orange

blue and yellow make green

red blue and yellow make brown.

We painted colour wheels in school today to show the colours mixing.

We will finish our pictures tomorrow and show you what they look like then.
