Room 2 are Number 1

Number 1

We learned about the number one. We know a rhyme to write the number one.

Number one is like a stick

A straight line down

That's very quick

We learned a song called One Little Finger. We love singing along to it.

We circled sets of one in our books and made sets of one in our maths copies.

There is a display in our class showing the number one and sets of one. Look at our perfect patterns too!

We made a rainbow 1 and wrote 1 in our copies.

Capacity

We are playing with water basins in the morning. We love filling the bottles up and emptying them out again! We count how many jugs it takes to fill a bottle.

Writing

We learned to write the letter g this week.

You start at the dot and go all around like a c, you close it, you go down, down, down under the line and kick it back.

Gaeilge

We were on the television this week! Rocky Rua has a TV and some of us had a turn being interviewed.

Rocaí Rua: Dia Duit. (Hello)

Páiste: Dia is Muire duit. (Hello)

Rocaí Rua: Cé tusa? (Who are you?)

Páiste: Is mise ... (I am ...)

Rocaí Rua: An maith leat milseáin? (Do you like sweets?)

Páiste: Is/Ní maith liom milseáin. (I like/do not like sweets.)

Rocaí Rua: Go raibh maith agat. Slán (Thank you. Bye)

Páiste: Slán. (Bye)

We also talked about the TV shows we liked.

An maith leat Fireman Sam? (Do you like Fireman Sam?)

Is maith liom Fireman Sam. (I like Fireman Sam)

Ní maith liom Fireman Sam. (I do not like Fireman Sam)

Valentine's Day

Today is Valentine's Day. We made love bugs during the week to give to the people we love.

In the morning teacher showed us a song she remembers from a TV show when she was a little girl. The song is called Skinnamarink. She said some of the mammies and daddies might remember it!
