Hello rang a cúig agus rang a sé,
The countdown is now on for mid-term with only a few days left of distance learning before a well deserved break for you all after all your tremendous and exquisite efforts in everything you have done so far!
Thank you to everyone who took part in the zoom call this morning. I really enjoyed today's zoom call, I miss our PE classes. It was great to do it virtually and thanks to everyone for all your amazing workout plans which I would love to use at the beginning of each zoom to get moving and have a bit of fun!
Well done on all the amazing History projects, I am reading through all of them and will be compiling them all to make an e-book for you all to see each other's projects.
Please find below the plan of work for Week 5 - 8th-12th February 2021. As always, if you have any questions/ concerns please contact me through Seesaw or via email at niamhc@stoliverplunkettns.com. Homework is also outlined on Seesaw. For Fun Friday this week, we have decided to give you an option between practicing your baking skills in time for Pancake Tuesday or follow a guided Art lesson for Valentines Day which I will upload on Seesaw early on in the week for you to get organised or if you would prefer to do it during the week.
This is an example of how you may decide to structure the learning this week. It is not prescriptive, do what works best for your family at your own discretion and work around your own schedule. I have sent an email with the worksheets needed for the week also if anyone would like to print them but this is not necessary, they will all be posted on Seesaw with explanations.
Have a lovely weekend,
Ms. Colleran
