We have been working alongside the artist Mirjam Keune on our topic ‘Minibeasts’ . Firstly we read the book ‘|Bugs in a blanket’ as our stimulus. Each week we created different artwork, such as drawings, making our own felt pictures and creating creatures with fimo clay to name but a few. Check out our photographs below of us all in action.
Welcome to our class blog. We cant wait to share our news with you all! Hurry back for more.
On the 30th of January Mr Cronin’s 5th Class took a trip to Trinity College. We learned about Carbon Monoxide poisoning as well as becoming C.S.I scientists for the afternoon!! We got to check for fingerprints and do tests to find out what different mystery substances were.
Everybody had a fantastic day and here are a few pictures to prove that we did!
As Spring is the time of growth, we decided to do a little planting! We learnt all about how plants grow and what they need to survive. After this, we got some plastic cups, compost, sunflower seeds and water and planted our very own Sunflowers.
We will look after them every day and hopefully the sun will shine enough to make them big and strong!
Take a look at our beautiful St.Brigid’s Day pictures we coloured. We thank St.Brigid for Spring Time. ![image[6]](http://www.saintjamessps.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/image6.jpeg)
Run run as fast as you can you can’t catch me I’m the Gingerbread Man… We learnt about the story of The Gingerbread Man. For Golden time we decided to make our own. We were afraid the Gingerbread Men would hop out of the oven and escape!! We made sure we ate them straight away!
Ms. McGoey helped us with our recipe and brought in an electric mixer. We had great fun using it.
We learnt new words-Recipe, Ingredients, Mixture, Electric Mixer, Dough, Timer.
