A Wonderful Start to the Year in 3rd and 4th Class! 🍂🎃

 

It has been a busy and exciting start to the school year for 3rd and 4th Class, with lots of learning, creativity and fun along the way!

In History, we explored how life has changed from our parents’ and grandparents’ time to today,

comparing school life, technology and uniforms. In Geography, we learned about Ireland and the

USA, and one of our pupils was able to share their own knowledge of America to help us with our

research.

Science has been full of discovery as we explored the human skeleton and learned how our bones,

joints and muscles work together to help us move and stay healthy.

We even made our own joint models! In Maths, we have been putting on our Maths Eyes, looking for maths in the world around us and creating our own Maths Eyes posters.

We have also been busy putting lots of thought, imagination and creativity into our entries for the

Credit Union Art Competition.

There has been plenty of excitement on the sporting front, too! Our U11 boys have made it to the

county final, while our U11 girls enjoyed taking part in a blitz. We have also had lots of great days

out and wonderful experiences together.

October brought a very special addition to our classroom as we welcomed Ms. Dowling, our student

teacher. She shared lots of fun lessons and engaging project work with us, and we would like to thank

her warmly for all her hard work and for making our learning so enjoyable.

As we head into the Halloween break, we have been getting into the spooky spirit with a visit from

a storyteller, and we are looking forward to our Halloween disco and activities on Friday.

Well done to everyone in 3rd and 4th Class for all their hard work, enthusiasm and fantastic

efforts so far this year. We have lots to be proud of and look forward to more learning and adventures

after the break! 🍁
