A brand new year

We have settled back into school very well after Christmas.
We have been exploring "The Bakery" in Aistear and have learned lots of new vocabulary and skills, such as how to make our own dough.
In Maths we are learning about ordinal number, click here to play a fun fruit and vegetable ordinal number game which we are very good at. 
We are all developing our literacy skills with the help of 6th class. Every week the 6th class pupils will come to our classroom and be our reading buddies. They are very good at reading us stories and ask us lots of questions about the sounds, tricky words and our understanding of the book. 
We are also learning the importance of hygiene, especially when preparing food. We are learning clever ways to wash our hands, making sure we wash away all the germs. Our top tip is to sing the ABC song while you lather the front of your hands, back of your hands, thumbs  then fingernails with soap. When you get to the letter Z it's time to rinse!
