We are now going into first class so we won't be using this blog any more - except for remembering all the great things we got up to in senior infants.
To keep up to date with our future activities, keep an eye on our school website - http://balbrigganetns.scoilnet.ie/blog.
We hope you enjoyed our blog! :-)

Your World Cup Team!
Since Ireland isn't in the World Cup this time around, some of us aren't quite sure who to support... Luckily you can choose a random team here!
You can see when your team is playing here!
Photography Fun On Our Field Trip!
We went on a really fun field trip today! We went to visit a field to see if we could find the plants that we'd been learning about for the past two weeks. We each had a treasure hunt card and we had to try find all the plants on the list. When we found them, we had to take a photo of them.
Check out some of our photos here!
We did great on the field trip so it's no wonder then that we won the Greenwave photography competition! A piece of good news came through yesterday telling us that our photo of the hawthorn bud burst had been chosen as the best of all. As a result of this we get a digital camera for the school! Fintan was very pleased with us! :-)

Here's our nursery rhyme for last week though...

Tricky Word Songs
We've been very busy the last few weeks learning some new tricky words!
Here are the videos of the songs!
Alien Pairs to Ten!
Here's a lovely game we played in class today.
It helped us practise our bonds to ten and it was also great fun to see the aliens being sucked up into the mothership!

Designing and Making Shakers
Today, we designed and made some shakers using the natural materials we gathered on our field trip.
A lot of people decided to use stones and pebbles as they made a louder noise but some people chose grass and plant material for a softer swoosh!
You can check us out here!
I'm sure there'll be many noisy houses tonight! Have fun!

Junior Spiders!
On Tuesday, we had the huge honour of being invited to attend the Junior Spiders award ceremony in Google HQ.
We didn't win a trophy but we did have loads of fun!
Check out some photos from the day here!
Riddle Me This!
We were doing some riddles today.
Riddles can be really tricky!
The first one is where you have to think really carefully about what you want to do.
This one tries to trick you. Listen really carefully!

Adding Machine
In maths, we played this game to practise our adding.
This was a good revision as lots of us had forgotten things over the spring holidays!
You can play it again here!
