Gallery – Third Class

Ms McGloin’s class worked incredibly hard on these super projects. Each pupil was assigned a county of Ireland to work on. Their work is amazing – take a look!

This month all the boys and girls in Ms Harraghy’s class have been working very hard. Take a look at our Haunted St Mochta’s School Math’s door where we practised our times tables for Maths week! We have also been looking into some art inspired by Edvard Munch’s ‘The Scream’. We created seasonal window dials and painted some very spooky haunted houses for Halloween!

The 3rd Class teachers dressed up as the characters from Inside Out!

Happy Halloween from Ms McGloin’s Class!

In 3rd Class, we have been learning about Irish birds and the story of Icarus and Daedalus. This inspired our latest artwork!

World Book Day in Third Class.

Ms McGloin’s class have had two visits so far from Boyana from Junior Achievement Ireland. We have been learning all about Our Planet. This week, we learned all about the journey a banana takes to get to us. We learned how to check the origin country of the food we buy in the shops. We are having a great time learning lots through games and discussions. We are very grateful to our volunteer Boyana for visiting us each week to help us learn.

Ms. Allen has been teaching us all about Egypt and the Ancient Egyptians. Check out our hieroglyphics – can you crack the code???

In January in Ms. Quinn’s class we made a model of the Earth’s layers out of plasticine, turned ourselves into Pharaohs in Art and did History projects in the shape of pyramids on Ancient Egypt.

Ms McGloin’s 3rd Class have been very busy! We wrote excellent reports about artist Andy Warhol. Then, we created our own beautiful artwork inspired by Andy Warhol’s popart.
We have also been learning about the counties of Ireland. We each did a project on a county and presented what we learned to the class. Have a look at our super work!
