Maths
This week we have been exploring the topic of Time, with a focus on calendars and ways of measuring time.
- Daily 10: Linked here, we do this every morning in our class as a maths warm up. We usually select Level 2 - Addition - 20 seconds, but feel free to explore the many other options available.
- Caterpillar ordering - for counting linked here
- Time - please discuss clocks, calendars, months and seasons with your children throughout the week.
Literacy
Both 1st and 2nd Class have been working on grammar related to nouns. We have begun rehearsing our Christmas play together in class. Thank you to all of the boys and girls for putting themselves forward to play a range of characters.
Gaeilge
This week we continued the theme of Food (Bia).
Come Farm With Me
This week was our second last week of AgriAware's Come Farm With Me series. Next week we will be having a livestream with all of our farmers on screen to answer our questions from the past six weeks. Ask your child about what they have learned.
Bí Cinéalta Competition
See below some photos of our anti-bullying competition entries. Best of luck to all entries!
Homework
There will be a spelling test on Friday morning using 10 random spellings from the week.
- Maths - Sheet with sections labelled Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday to be completed nightly. Marked every morning in class. Please encourage pupils to try their best and if there is an issue it will be addressed in the morning. Questions across any given week tend to be quite similar and a deeper understanding should develop each night, leading to more confidence.
- English - Nightly spellings divided into four groups for Monday-Thursday. 10 will be chosen at random on Friday mornings for a spelling test. Please ensure that the activities on the back of the sheet are completed by Friday morning for correction.
Congratulations to our pupils of the week, our Mystery Box winner, and our Writing Award winner.
Thank you,
Mr Rice
