Stem Activity: The Great Irish Zoo off: Land v Sea

We do lots of STEM in class. We love making different designs and working together to make amazing new inventions. We loved the STEM talk that we watched today. We saw lots of different animals that live in Ireland and we learned lots of new facts and how we can help.

Making Medals for the Olympic Games

We are taking part in 'The Road to Toyko' challenge. We are recording all the exercise we do both at home and in school. We have thousands of kms to travel but we are doing lots of exercise so we are making our way really quickly. When we reached Athens we learned all about the 1st ever Olympic Games. They set us a challenge in Athens to make a medal for the Olympics. Take a look at our amazing designs.

Distance from Leixlip to Kerry completed.
This term we aimed to run 1525 laps of the court- this was the same distance as running from Leixlip to Kerry. We did absolutely brilliant and finished just in time to get Ms.Hanafin home🙂🙂

Merry Christmas

Leixlip to Kerry

As a class, we are running the distance from Leixlip to Kerry - 305km. We are trying to get Ms. Hanafin home in time for Christmas. We are running laps out in the yard everyday to build up our kms. Each lap of the court is 200m so we must run 1525 to make the 305km we need to reach Kerry. We are averaging about 6-7 laps per person each day.
So far we are over half way - just passing Nenagh in County Tipperary.

Working on our Presidential Campaigns

We were interested in the American Election that was taking place in the US so we decided to do our own classroom election. We all worked on our presidential campaign. We wrote all the things we would do if we were to become president and we decorated our campaign poster. We had some excellent ideas and I know our country will be in good hands in the future.

We left our voting box up for a week. We all got to vote and some of the teachers voted too. With nearly 100 votes, it was a very very close election. We had to have a raffle with the leading candidates to choose our president.

We had lots of fun.
