Active Breaks and Active Learning

In Scoil Mhuire Junior we find lots of ways to be active during the day. We love movement breaks and use a variety of activities such as dancing, ‘GoNoodle’, running breaks, classroom exercises, cosmic yoga, walking and active games. We also love active lessons and find lots of creative ways to get the children moving while they learn!

Have a look at this maths lesson and this phonics lesson which were taught through movement.

Here are some of our Junior Infants enjoying a classroom movement break.

And some of our classes out for a run on the SCMJ running track.

And finally look at this video of the WHOLE SCHOOL dancing together at assembly!

We share lots of our daily activities on Twitter so please have a look to see more!
