Here is an insight to the wonderful world of Aistear. Aistear promotes the importance of learning through play. Junior and Senior infants have this week been engrossed in the theme of farming. We had wonderful donations of astro turf and farming apparel from our parents – thank you! Donal O’Shaughnessy (pictured below) gave a super talk about farming which really engaged the little learners. Well done Donal, it’s great to see peer tutoring in action!
The pictures above show the socio-dramatic area (pretend play!), the construction area, small world area and junk art. The thematic approach has proven to be very successful.
Thank you to Ms Whittle for the pictures and all the work that goes into creating a really meaningful Aistear experience.
