Hi everyone,
I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. Thanks again for the continued work that is being done with the children. Everyone is doing fantastic work. Now that you have the remainder of your books, I hope that it will make it a bit easier to complete the work.
Thanks also for all of the photos and videos that you have been sending of different work and activities that the children have completed. I love seeing them all so keep them coming.
Below is a suggested scheme of work. As always there is no pressure to complete all of this work. Do as much as you are able for and in any order that you like. Ms. O’Sullivan and I will continue to put activities on Seesaw each day but these can be done whenever you like. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us at mslanigansnc@gmail.com or msosullivansnc@gmail.com.
Kind regards,
Miss Lanigan.
Third Class Numeracy:

Figure It Out! 3 Chapter 22: Decimal fractions (pg.67 and 68)
Both books can be accessed on the CJFallon website. The link for the website is as follows:
Click ‘student resources’, then filter to the class (Third Class), subject (maths) and title you require (Busy at maths), making sure ‘Online Book’ is selected under ‘Resources’. This will display the book.
The interactives (resources, click interactives) can be used to aid in understanding in what is expected and has some activities to do. They match with the page of the maths book.
Weblinks tutorial 62 and 63 are useful this week.
The pages from Busy at Maths and Figure it Out will also be on seesaw and assigned to the pupils each day.
These video links will be beneficial to the children in helping to understand decimals.

Art
Solar System – use playdough to make a model of the solar system. If you do not have playdough then you can draw the solar system, trying to keep in mind the sizes of the planets and the sun. Use appropriate colours. You can use any materials that you like. Please include as much detail and information as you can in your model or drawing.
PE
There are plenty of ideas for P.E. on this webpage https://www.weareteachers.com/virtual-pe-classes/
Don’t forget that games the children play and going for walks are all part of PE.
SPHE
If you’re a kid who worries a lot about things, you’re not alone! Lots of kids worry – it means that our brains are trying to help us to prepare for things that
might (or might not!) happen in the future! We need to have ways to deal with our worries so that they don’t take up too much of our time and stop us from
enjoying life! Look at the activity on Seesaw for dealing with worries.
Music
Continue to practise tin whistle tunes.
