Each class was allocated a project - to create something to add to the fantastic outdoor learning spaces we have been developing this year. The Birch Class have been working so hard on their creative project - to design and make some interactive tables using wooden reels. They spent time discussing how these tables might be used by other children and then designing their tables and stools. They worked together collaboratively - even helping to lift the tables outside in wheelbarrows! Well done everyone they look fantastic!

We have been hard at work creating interactive tables for the outdoor learning spaces in the school - today we brought them outside. They were very heavy so we needed a lot of teamwork and we even got to use the lift which we were all very excited by!
The Birch Class conducted a survey to find out about the favourite ice-cream flavours of Senior Infants. Firstly we visited the Oak and Sycamore classes and asked them - we recorded their answers on tally charts. Then we used the tally charts to create a frequency table. Finally we worked in groups to create a block graph and a pictogram for display. Thanks for all the support for Ice-Cream Funday in aid of Down Syndrome Ireland! Check out this fantastic montage of Intercultural May! We had so much fun this year. It’s that time of year again - Powerstown ETNS will host our HB Ice Cream Fun day in aid of Down Syndrome Ireland!
On June 1st, each class will be getting their own delicious ice-cream to enjoy! We are asking all the boys and girls to donate €2 for this brilliant cause, Down Syndrome Ireland. Down Syndrome Ireland is an organisation that is working to provide an Irish society where people with Down Syndrome have the same basic human rights to healthcare, education, employment opportunities and decision making as all other citizens. Please support this great cause! We used various resources as prompts to write silly sentences to practice both our handwriting and word order!
