Welcome to Senior Infants!

Senior Infants 2023-2024

BeeBots

Senior Infants had great fun using BeeBots over the last few weeks.  A BeeBot is a programmable bee robot that is designed to be used by children.  It can be programmed by using the arrows on its back to move forward, backwards or turn 90 degrees.  We had lots fun programming the BeeBot to move in order to solve problems.

Maths Eyes 👀

Senior Infants had great fun using their 'Maths Eyes'👀. They explored maths all around them and created these fantastic maths eyes posters at home. We really enjoyed answering each question in class. Can you answer their questions? 

Maths Games Stations

Math stations are an excellent way to learn maths. For Maths Week 2022, we had fun playing lots of different maths games each morning. These included a variety of board games, threading numbers and patterns and games based upon 2D shapes and addition. We also had lots of fun playing bingo and a variety of dice games.
