We are using 'Aistear' as a method of teaching this year and it is going exceptionally well. The children are so engaged and excited with each day and are learning in an environmen that suits them best!
It uses four different play areas that four groups take turns playing in each day and then on Fridays they get to pick where they play. Last term we used the play areas- Junk Art, Role Play, Playdough and Construction. The Construction area was then changed to Sand and then the Quiet Area. This term they are using Water. It is so important to talk to the children about what they have done each day as each area is developing their motor skills, oral language, maths skills, social skills... the list goes on! Here are some photos of us playing in our different play areas last term- more photos to follow! Watch this space!
