I would choose the activity set ‘The Moon’to do with my senior infants class and incorporate it into many curricular areas particularly Aistear. For Aistear, I would have 4 stations for my 4 groups(only 17 in my incoming class). I would definitely have a role play/dress up station for the kids to roleplay astronauts on a mission to the moon! They adore dressing up and role playing so this would be great fun!
An art station could be set up to do ‘The man in the moon’activity from this module and could be completed over the course of a week. An oral language station led by me could focus on ‘The Moon’rhyme done through circle time with lots of discussion on what the moon looks like. My last station would be a Maths mini lesson focusing on the different shapes of the moon( draw,label then colour). They could also make 3D versions.
