Busy Builders
Some of the big boys from Ms. Downey’s Class last year visited to show us how to build towers, rockets, bridges and even make letters, numbers and shapes using blocks. Since their visit the boys and girls have been very busy builders.

Halloween
Ms. Downey decorated the classroom for Halloween. We did lots of Halloween Art in Room 2. We drew ghosts, pumpkins, bats and witches with help from Art for Kids on YouTube. Then we painted pumpkins, bats and witches. We made Lollipop Ghosts, Mandarin Pumpkins and Scary Spiders. We brought them all home in Halloween Art Folders.

Ms. O’Mahony Leaving
We are very sad to say goodbye to Ms. O’Mahony. She has helped us so much over the past two months. We will all miss her but we wish her well in her new school.
Remember to look at lots of books and use your Maths Eyes over the Halloween break!
Maths Week 2017
18th October 2017
It is Maths Week and today Ms. Downey’s Class did a Maths Trail during MathsTime. We had to use our Maths Eyes to answer questions in The Classroom, The Yard, The Carpark and The Hall. We used clipboards from Laragh’s Room. It was very interesting and we had lots of fun as you can see from the photos below. Thanks to Ms. Goggins, Ms. Kelly, Ms. Cox and Tanya for their help.
Planting Bulbs in Room 2
Friday 13th October 2017
Today Ms. Downey’s Class planted bulbs.
We needed soil, pots and big seeds called bulbs.
First we filled our pots with soil.
Then we made holes with our thumbs and we pushed the bulbs in.
We covered the bulbs with soil to keep them warm.
Finally we watered them.
In the Spring our bulbs will become flowers called crocuses.
