Getting creative at Play Time

We got new play dough recently and we really enjoy being creative and making things with it. Have a look at some of the things we made.
















Éadaí Bingo

We are learning all about Éadaí (clothes) in Irish at present. We LOVE playing the Éadaí bingo game. It is great fun and we are getting very good at concentrating and watching our bingo cards.

Fun making pancakes


We made delicious pancakes in class for Pancake Tuesday. Firstly, we put all the ingredients into a bowl (flour, a pinch of salt, some eggs and milk)  and then we mixed the mixture together. We remembered to sieve the flour before we put it into the bowl, and this was great fun. Teacher had a special pancake maker and she poured the mixture into this. It cooked two pancakes at once, which was really handy, and it also cooked the top and bottom of the pancake simultaneously, so we didn't have to flip the pancake over to cook the other side.  Then we put some fresh lemon juice and chocolate spread on them and ate them while they were still hot. They were very tasty indeed!!
                     We also learned a little rhyme about making pancakes:
                                                        Mix a pancake,
                                                        Stir a pancake,

                                                        Pop it in the pan.
                                                        Fry a pancake
                                                        Flip a pancake,
                                                        Catch it if you can!!





















We made St. Brigid's Crosses

Have a look at the crosses we made recently, to celebrate St. Brigid's Day. We used four long strips of paper to make them. They turned out great!!!
