As I am posting this during my Back to School week of posts, I am going to begin the series with a look at how I have prepared for using Aistear in my classroom. Thus begins this series of posts about my Aistear journey in Senior Infants. I also gathered information from anyone with any experience of using the programme in their school to get as much practical advice as possible. I had a look at various Aistear plans online ( Infant Teaching Ideas has lots that you can download for €2, Twinkl also has some available if you are a member) to get ideas for what kind of equipment I would need, activity ideas I could use, etc. While I have attended workshops based on Aistear in my school, over the summer I completed the 'Infant Education' summer course offered by CPD in an attempt to brush up on my knowledge. While I did use structured play in my classroom, it was unrelated to the theme I was covering with the class that month. I can't deny that I'm feeling slightly anxious about the move (despite having taught this class level before!) but I am excited about the year ahead.Īs Aistear was only in its infancy (no pun intended!) when I taught Senior Infants before, I didn't have an opportunity to try it out. ![]() ![]() This year I am heading back to Senior Infants after spending 4 years in senior classes. ![]()
