In the Chestnut Class we've been learning how to add numbers together. We're rolling a dice and then counting out that number of counters. Then we write the number underneath. We roll the dice again and repeat for the other side. Then we add the numbers together and find the answer on our number fans! We're getting so good at counting and are working hard at writing our numbers!

Throughout Aistear this week, the boys and girls in the Chestnut Class have been working on a piece of space art. They painted a planet, add glittering stars and then designed themselves in a rocket flying around the solar system. We have them up on the wall to show them off and we'll send them home in a bit after the other classes have had a chance to look at them!
A huge thanks to all the families who sent stuff in for junk art this week. We got so many different materials and items to work with! Today we got into pairs and looked at 2 different ways to join and connect items. We got into pairs and started working on our projects. We are making rockets, space stations and even space cars from our imagination!
If you have more materials at home keep sending them in as tomorrow we are going to continue our work and learn another 2 ways to connect items together. The plan is currently to paint on Thursday and then we'll take photos with the finished projects on Friday! Today in our athletics lesson we are practicing throwing at targets. If we get a beanbag in the 1st ring we get 1 point, 2 points for the middle ring and 3 points for the last one! We've to throw carefully and then add up all our points!
Congratulations to our Student and Table of the Week! They all worked so hard this week to earn their awards.
On Wednesday, the Chestnut Class started athletics with Ciarán! We had an amazing time hopping, jumping and running. We'll have athletics class every Wednesday for the next term!
Making sets absolutely ground to a halt once we saw the snow! We had to take the opportunity so we got all wrapped up and went outside for 5 minutes to play in the snow!
We've been hard at work over the last 2 days making sets in Chestnut Class. Today we've been practicing figuring out Eoin's secret number from clues and then making sets of that number using our counters!
Our Aistear for December is all about weather! We are weather reporting, making rainy day art, playing with a small world Arctic scene and building a winter wonderland town!
