Just a quick update from 5th and 6th class! Everyone seems to be fully settled in and the work we are producing so far in both classes is absolutely superb. The best thing is, it can only get better! We have been really focusing on our spoken Irish so far this year, and really think it is paying off. We’ll all be Gaeilgeoirs by the end of the year!
Along with this, we have been putting a particular focus on collaborative problem solving in mathemathics, emphasising the use of collaborative learning, classroom discourse and learning for robust understanding. You can see us working hard on some word problems below in our pods.
We have all had a chance to show our creativity when we made our “Class Peacock” last week, where we all created our own feathers, as you can see below.
I think after working so hard for the last few weeks, we are all looking forward to the well deserved break, where we can relax and recharge for the week. Hope everyone has an excellent Halloween and stays safe!
