We have been knitting our hairbands in class and at home and working on flowers to decorate them. We learned how to cast on stitches, increase and decrease stitches and cast off at the end. We are starting on our little bags now. We will be learning purl stitch and we will knit a leaf from a pattern to decorate it. Here are some of the finished headbands. We are proud of our work !
In Art, we have been doing Printing. We used homemade printing blocks to make a variety of designs. We used the finished printed pages to cover our Music copies. We also made prints with paint on lino. This was a messy job but we enjoyed it and we were delighted with the results of our work. Here are some pictures for you to admire.
Welcome to all the girls who are now in 5th class Room 6. We have had a "Tús Maith, Leath na hOibre" start to our new school year! We have been working hard and enjoying some fun too. On Friday, some girls performed music on the concertina, ukelele and tinwhistle. Alex sang beautifully and accompanied herself on the ukelele. A few girls showed us their whistling skills too..... here are the pictures !
