On Thursday, it was International Dot Day! It is inspired by the story ‘The Dot’ written by Peter H. Reynolds. Every year, International Dot Day is a global celebration of creativity, courage and collaboration.
Senior Infants were inspired by the story and created their own dot creations too!
The first art pieces of Senior Infants! The class were busy practising their cutting skills by cutting coloured pages into small squares and sticking them to create their mosaic names.
Senior Infants enjoyed sharing all about their wonderful summers. They completed some fantastic handwriting when writing about the places they visited during their summer holidays 🗺️
Below is the posters of all of the single sounds and the actions that the children have completed in Junior Infants. The poster will help with the children to practice their sounds and actions at home for homework.
The children will continue learning more sounds throughout Senior Infants which will also be added to the blog as they are completed in class.
I am also attaching a link to the songs for the first that the children have learned to help them practise at home:

There are many important aspects to the learning of reading and writing, especially in Junior Infants. It can beneficial if the development of these skills are practiced not just in school but at home also. Below is a document with information of how the children will be learning to read and write in school. Included in the document are some suggestions as to how this can be supported at home.
