Fishing in Junior infants


We started to play go fish.  We each take turns and turning a fish over, we count the dots on the fish and match it to the number in the bowl.  If we dont have that number we keep fishing until we fill the bowl with fish.  e are getting very good at taking turns and helping each other in a nice way without getting angry if someone forgets how to play.

Pattern work in Junior infants

This week we were talking about patterns in Maths. We see patterns everywhere - on animals, on tiles, on clothes, on floors, on walls. We made patterns in school with counters, bears, straws, beads and links. We brought in some patterns from home.

Number game in Senior Infants

 We learned how to play a new matching game.  You have to match up numbers, numerals and spots.  We will play this in teams and see can each team do the matching correctly.  We don't think it will be too difficult for us.
