May

The buachaillí and cailíní in 3rd class had a busy month in May! They finished their cycling lessons with Eoin and Dudley after many weeks and continued to work hard learning ISL with Debbie.

We had a lovely return after Easter by celebrating 'Well-Being' week. As part of Well-Being week, we talked about healthy eating, with particular focus on the food pyramid. The class designed healthy, balanced menus.

The class completed and presented their projects on 'The Normans'. They worked together to complete digital projects on SeeSaw, and presented them via the interactive whiteboard in our classroom.

In English, we finished reading our class novel, 'The Butterfly Lion', by Michael Morpurgo. The really enjoyed the story and we completed many activities based upon the book. 

March

March was another productive month in 3rd class. The boys and girls participated in so many fun activities and have learned so much. 

Maths 

In Maths, one of the topics we learned about this month was 2D shapes. We had so much fun learning about lots of different shapes, and getting to do lots of hands-on activities.

Literacy

Over the last month, the class were focusing on the genre of procedural writing. At the end of the month, all of the students wrote their own piece of procedural writing. 

Art

In Art, the class studied the artist Vincent Van Gogh. We looked closely at the 'Sunflowers' piece he painted and recreated our very own versions! 

PAWS 

In the Aquatics strand of PE, the class learned about the importance of water safety. They participated in the PAWS programme.

Irish Sign Language (ISL)

The class started to learn ISL with their Irish Sign Language teacher, Debbie. The students have been loving it and are eager to learn more over the coming weeks.
