Our Human Number Line

Senior Infants in Room 5 are practicing the words before and after. We are using the number line and deciding where numbers come on the line. We have a human numberline and we play a swapping game. For instance someone who has no number can swap with the person who has the number that comes before 8 etc.

Activities foccusing on Number

Have a look at some of our Number games. We play number pairs, spotty dogs, ladybirds, the tree game and the fishbowl game. In these games we do a lot of throwing dice and counting objects.

Stars

Look at the stars we made from lollypop sticks, matchsticks, geoboards, geostrips and straws. Now we know lots of 2D and 3D shapes.

Using a Feely Bag

Our Data Chart of the Smartest Giant in Town

Senior Infants, Room 5

Teacher read us the story of The Smartest Giant in Town. All the animals in the story needed the giant's clothes. We had to decide which animal needed the clothes most. We put the animals we chose on a chart. We can see that the class mainly felt that the giraffe needed the tie more than other animals needed the clothing they got. Well done to the giant for sharing so well!
