As part of our recent STEM focus the pupils have had the opportunity to work with some of the other 2nd level teachers. My class have enjoyed developing their computer technology skills and are seen here having a Google race!
Yesterday the children had a visit from Jupiter Artland, we went for a walk in our local environment and had great fun creating imaginary alien landscapes! Next week we will be outside again making alien creatures.
After looking at which shapes are the strongest and constructing towers from different materials, this week we investigated stability. The children had great fun building structures with spaghetti and marshmallows. They realised having a firm foundation is crucial, especially when experimenting with jelly for a base!
