We looked at the work of Amedeo Modigliani, the Italian painter and sculptor. He is known for his modern portraits, painting elongated necks and faces and small lips. We had fun creating our Modigliani style self portraits!

We learned a lot about the planets in Our Solar System. We had great fun raiding Ms. Lyons’ shopping bag and comparing each planet’s size to different food! On the 17th October, we headed on our first bus trip of the year. We went to Kennedy Park in Wexford. We got a lovely guided tour around the park where we observed many signs of nature in Autumn. We had a lovely day in the fresh October air! We absolutely adore visiting our new computer room! We are learning typing skills, some basic code and playing Maths and English games, whilst having fun. We end every lesson with an interactive story time. We love I.C.T.!

We love drama in 2nd Class. Here we are creating still images of the tasks the Fianna Army had to perform. This was part of our lesson on the Irish Legend ” Oisín in Tír na nÓg”.
