Homework 17th - 21st October 2016

• Maths - please complete week 8 (pages 20 & 21) of Master Your Maths. If possible check questions 13 to 16 as we are focusing on problem solving in class at the moment. If you see any difficulties sit and go through with your child.
• English - Read chapter 4 of Under the Hawthorn Tree and go through the question sheet to assess comprehension. No need to write the answers.
• Irish Spellings - We will be revising up until the mid term break. The same 8 questions will be tested on Friday except for one difference. Normally I ask all 8 questions but this Friday I will only ask one questions 'Inis dom fút féin.. or tell me about yourself. children will have to try and remember as many things as possible.
• English Spellings - this week's focus is the prefix 'mid'. List of words can be found to the right. This week's vocabulary is based on the current history topic = The Celts.
• Duolingo - 50XP. I've spoken to the children in the class. Doing the same activity over and over will not be allowed from this point forward. The only time a lesson should be revised is when the bars next to it begin to decrease. When this happens the 'Strengthen' activity should be completed and not individual lessons.
