Below is a list of what we covered this week, along with some homework activities to support your child's learning. Click on the links to view the sites. Even just 10 minutes per day would be so beneficial.
Maths
We are working on patterns this week and we have introduced addition sums to our patterns. For example, 5 sets of 3 = 3+3+3+3+3 = 15. Children are still strugglign to understand analogue time, so please use the resources below as we are revisiting this topic next week!
- Daily 10: Linked here, we do this every morning in our class as a maths warm up. We usually select Level 2 - Addition - 15 seconds, but feel free to explore the many other options available.
- Wordwall time quiz: click here.
- At home: Use this clock resource to practice telling the time with your child.
Literacy

Gaeilge
This week we were working on the theme of "Sa Bhaile" (at home). Please familiarise yourselves with these key vocabulary words.
Holy Communion
Please practice the Our Father prayer this week.
Project Work
I would like all pupils to create their own invention for next Friday. They can present it as an A4 page / Powerpoint / Email / in copy. They can write mostly text or use mostly images to describe and sell their invention to us. Prizes for creative entries. This ties in with our "History of inventions" topic in-class. Best of luck!
Congratulations to our pupils of the week, our Happy Phone call winner, our Writing Award winner and our Secret Walker this week.
Thank you for another great week in 2nd class,
Mr Rice
