An tseachtain seo dhírigh muid ar fhoghlaim faoi chúram pearsanta agus thaitin sé go mór leis na páistí a bheith ag caint faoi seo le linn am ciorcail.
Labhair muid faoi ghléasadh, níochán ár gcuid gruaige, scuabadh ár gcuid gruaige agus scuabadh ár gcuid fiacla, gach rud mar chuid dár ngnáthamh laethúil le haghaidh cúram pearsanta.
Labhair muid freisin faoi machnamh chun cabhrú linn aire a thabhairt dár n-intinn freisin.
Phéinteáil muid pictiúr dínn féin don ealaín an tseachtain seo agus thaitin sé leis na páistí breathnú sa scáthán agus ansin teacht ar ais chun iad féin a tharraingt. Agus na páistí ag déanamh a bhféinphortráide, labhair siad faoin difríocht ina gcuid gruaige, súile, craicinn, srón agus béil. D'úsáideamar olann agus páipéar crepe freisin chun ár n-aghaidheanna a chruthú.
Don súgradh praiseach an tseachtain seo, thaitin sé leis na páistí páipéar a ghearradh le siosúr agus thaitin sé leo nuair a ghearr siad an páipéar go ndearna gach duine "cruth difriúil".
Bhí Salon Tigh na Si oscailte an tseachtain ar fad le haghaidh coinní agus bhí deiseanna ag na páistí a gcuid gruaige agus smideadh a dhéanamh. Ghlac na páistí sealanna ag obair san oifig, ag níochán, ag triomú agus ag stíliú gruaige. Thaitin sé go mór leis na páistí smideadh a chéile a dhéanamh freisin.
Thapaíomar an deis freisin fáilte a chur roimh na bábóga sa seomra chuig ár ngruagairí agus nigh, thriomaíomar agus stíleamar a gcuid gruaige.
Mar is gnáth, cén chaoi a mbeadh seachtain sa Naíonra gan damhsa, mar sin aon deis a bhí againn, rinneamar damhsa amhail is nach raibh aon duine ag faire orainn.
An tseachtain seo chugainn beidh ceolchoirm againn féin, mar sin is cuí go ndíreoimid níos mó ar an gceol, paisean atá ag na páistí.
Salon Tigh Na Sí
This week we focused on learning about self care and the children loved talking about this during circle time.
We spoke about getting dressed, washing our hair, brushing our hair and brushing our teeth all things part of our daily routine for self care. We also spoke about meditation to help us look after our minds too.
We painted a picture of ourselves for art this week the children loved looked in the mirror and then coming back to draw themselves. As the children did their self portrait they spoke about the difference in their hair, eyes, skin, nose and mouth. We also used wool and crepe paper to create our faces.
For our messy play this week the children loved cutting up paper using a scissors they children loved that when they cut the paper each one “made a different shape”.
Salon Tigh na Si was open all week for appointment with opportunities for the children to get their hair and make up done. The children took turns working in the office, washing, blow drying and styling hair. The children loved doing each other’s make up too.
We also took the opportunity to welcome the dolls in the room to our hairdressers we washed, dried and styled their hair.
As ever what would a week be in Naíonra without dancing so any opportunity we had we danced like no one was watching.
Next week we will hold our own concert so it’s only fitting that we focus on music a passion of the children in more detail.
