We have been very busy over the past couple of weeks.

Mrs. Kearns has begun teaching us Sign Language again.

In Maths we have been working on Time.  We have made Loop Games based on the 24 hour clock.

In English we have continued reading our novel The Guns of Easter.

We have acted out some of the scenes.

We also read about The 6 Nations Rugby Championship and carried out some work in pairs.  We wrote a conversation we’d like to have with Johnny Sexton.

In Art we looked at a painting called “Coming from the Mill”, by English artist L.S. Lowry.  We learned that he painted scenes depicting industrial cities in northern England.  We have been studying the Industrial Revolution in History and the painting gave us a better idea of what these cities looked like.  We are going to draw our versions of this painting in the coming days.

Finally, two of the boys in 6th Class helped Ms. Mooney put together a wooden house for her Cairdeas class.  They are available for any odd jobs that need to be done!
