This week we did lots of art in preparation for Christmas. We made lots of decorations to hang around the room and the children decided that they wanted to turn our special corner into Santa's Sledge! What a great idea! So  big thank you to our caretakers Tom and Joe for helping us build it. 
If anyone has any old Christmas decorations they would like to donate we would be delighted to add them to our homemade ones.

Now that the childrens' pencil grip is getting really strong they're getting really good at their colouring, zig zag, curved and straight lines. We are ready now to focus on our number formation of the no.s 1-3. We will not be working on written letter formation until after christmas. The children are really getting the hang of the letter sounds and we continue to pratice lots of rhyme so they can really hear the sounds within words. And of course, we did lots of work on the shape of the week, the square.

What fantastic homework this week! Well done everyone for all your efforts. Enjoy our rendition of this week's homework poem, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

Finally, it is with great sadness that we say fairwell to our wonderful Ms. O'Brien. She will be greatly missed by me and the children. She did absolutly fantastic work over the last month and we hope she will come back and visit us soon!

We all loved the music video Seans wants to build his own machine! He also loves the little world and all the lovely decorations especially the Santa's Caoimhe brought in!

I think they were all so fascinated by the Marble Music Machine. I think Sean would be well able to make his own!!
