Trip to the Aquarium
We were so lucky to get the chance to visit the Galway Atlantaquaria recently with Junior Infants. Maria, a marine biologist showed us some cool science experiments where we explored the differences between fresh and salt water and sinking and floating. Then, we had a tour of the aquarium and spotted everything from clownfish to piranhas!
Procedural writing
We have been learning about procedural writing. We have been practicing listening to instructions and giving them. It was so much fun putting this into practice making jam sandwiches and we quickly understood the importance of giving clear instructions. The highlight was getting to taste the sandwiches at the end!
Science week
We really enjoyed Science Week in Senior Infants. We did some fun experiments in class. We did an experiment with pepper, water and soap where the pepper acted as germs, helping us understand the importance of washing our hands with soap. We also did a walking water experiment and learnt about primary colours and how they mix to make secondary colours.
On Friday we were invited to visit 5th class to see our buddies who spent lots of time preparing some wonderful science experiments for us. Thanks to Ms Kearney and 5th class for their hard work.
