Fruit and Vegetable Day

Today we had our Fruit and Vegetable Day. Everyone brought in their favourite fruit and vegetable to share and taste. 

First we laid out all of the fruit and veg on a table. 

We then sorted into different categories. We put all the fruit together and all the veg together. 

Then we decided to sort them by size and by colour. 

We also used our mathematical skills to find out which fruit and veg were the most popular and which were the least popular. 

Carrots and corn were the most popular vegetables and celery was the least popular. Kiwis were the favoured fruit while figs and blueberries were the least favourite. 

Our favourite part was definetly trying the fruits and vegetables. Múinteoir Sinead was so impressed we tried lots of new foods too!!

The Dentist

Today our class had a very special visit from our local dentist , Dr. Neysan Chah. He told us how to keep our teeth healthy and what foods to avoid. 

Dr. Chah showed us how to brush our teeth properly. 

He answered all of our questions and gave us a goodie bag to take home! We all got new toothbrushes too! How lucky are we!

Our new goody bags. 

Our class work on healthy teeth. 

Positivity Day

Today was Positivity Day at school. 

We played lots of nice games and activities to celebrate the special day. 

First thing this morning, we received a card from Múinteoir Sinéad that had positive messages and sayings, such as "you are a kind friend" and "you are amazing". 

We were really happy with our positive messages. 

After lunch we used our "Compliment Cup". We read our compliments to our friends. Everyone had written really nice things about their friends!

We brought our teddies to the library and read them our favourite stories. 

We had so much fun today on positivity day. We cannot wait for Positivity Day next year! 

Our Compliment Cup

This is our "Compliment Cup". We wrote down compliments about each other and put them in our special cup. 

We love to give each other compliments in our class.
