Maths

·
Practise all division tables. A copy of the
tables is in your child’s folder. Interactive Tables games are also a good
way of practising. Links can be found on my blog.
·
Work out division questions using the long
division method. These questions should be copied from the page into the
maths homework copy. Pages must be lined and titled and all questions should
be written neatly. An example of how to complete long division questions can
be found on the back of the sheet or an explanation video can be viewed on my
blog.

Gaeilge

There are 8 Litriú Gaeilge this week. These
can be found on page 12 of Litriú É Linn. We have covered them in the past
but I would like to go over them again. The list, including English
translation and phonetic breakdown can be found on my blog.

Continue to use duolingo as a method of
practising Irish. I would like everyone to complete a minimum of 4 activities
a week. If possible please practise as much as possible.

New spelling system starting this week. Only 8
spellings in total but all words will be completely different i.e. no word
families such as plan, man, tan etc. Activities to practise these words will
also be included. Spellings will be differentiated for the needs of
individual pupils.

There will be a short cloze procedure exercise
to complete.

From this point forward the class will have to
complete one project a month. Each project will focus on a topic from the
history, science or geography curriculum.

This month’s project will be based on our
current history and geography topics – Egypt and Ancient Egypt.

Pupils can complete the project using one of
two methods.

An A4 sized booklet with a page dedicated to
each section.

I’ve listed a number of topics below. Each pupils
must choose 4 topics and create their project around them.
