Potion Lab- October – Aistear

Roisin’s junior infant class had so much fun in Aistear this month. During the month of October, our theme for Aistear was focused around Halloween. In our make-believe area, we created potions . We planned what gruesome items we were putting into the potions first and then became witches and wizards to create the spell. In the other groups we did some art to improve our fine motor skills, we constructed spooky haunted houses and we played a Halloween game to teach us how to take turns and follow rules. Here are some pictures to show what we did! Look at the spooky pumpkin that we carved. See our sensory sand pit hiding gruesome eyeballs, mini pumpkins, body parts, snakes, spiders and more! We played at spooky spell school for young witches and wizards and learned lots of new spells.

We painted some witches legs and had an end of term Halloween party with other classes in the school. Everyone wore their halloween costumes in…we had three spidermen in our class!
