4th, 5th and 6th class worked very hard and completed lots of work in different areas this month.

We celebrated St Patrick’s Day by designing our own shamrocks and mixing lots of shades of green to paint them.

It was Mother’s Day on March 15th and to say thanks to our mums for all they do for us we made them pretty bookmarks. In English class we wrote acrostic poems for our mums too.

In Geography we spent this month looking at and studying the country France. We learned lots of new interesting information and wrote up our findings!

For Green Schools we designed our ‘Transport of the Future’

We are working on attaining our Travel Flag in Green Schools at the moment.

In art we created our own Easter chicks by blowing yellow paint on a page with straws. We made the nests from matchsticks!

Finally in History we have been learning all about the Easter Rising in 1916. Again we found out lots of new information about this topic and wrote up our findings.

Happy Easter to everyone from 4th, 5th & 6th Class!!

French in Wandesforde NS!

Date posted: 5th June 2013 | Category Blog, French, Junior Classroom, Middle Classroom, Senior Classroom, Subjects |

French lessons concluded last week in school.  The children made a huge effort to learn lots of new words including numbers, colours, animals, members of the family, food and how to talk about themselves.  Each week, the children tasted some french food such as croissants, pain au chocolat and brioche.  All the children received a certificate for their efforts, a book with all their worksheets and of course a little treat.  Well done everybody.  I hope you all enjoyed learning this lovely language!

 

Au Revoir!
