Hi Class! Here is the work for the week ahead. Try your best with it. If you wanted to do the work on 'Clouds' or 'The Ear' in the format of a little project this might be a nice idea. You could put your own spin on it and use any layout you like. Just an idea!

Happy Easter 5th Class!

I’d like to wish all my fifth class a very Happy Easter! I hope that you are all keeping well and safe. A big thank you to all who have contacted me and sent me photos – I have loved seeing what you’ve been getting up to and how hard you’ve been working! I am very proud of you all. I will not be assigning any work for the next 2 weeks as it is the Easter Holidays so you can all take a well deserved break! Keep sending me photos or videos of what you’ve been getting up to. I really enjoy seeing what everyone has been doing!
​
I have added a few nice activities below that you could try over Easter if you’re looking for something to do!

Happy Easter to you all and don’t forget to eat lots of chocolate!! 
I miss you all so much and I hope to see you very soon!

Hi class!
I hope you’re all keeping well, staying busy and washing those hands! I’ve been entertaining myself by going for lots of walks, reading and baking! I’d love to see how you’ve all been keeping yourselves busy, so if you would like to send me some photos of any nice activities you’ve been doing at home or any artwork you’ve created, I’ll post them here on our class page!

​Email address: msmunroesclass@gmail.com


​Here are some fun ideas and useful websites to help you stay busy:
​
  • ​Listen to one of David Walliams' books being read every day from 11am. https://www.worldofdavidwalliams.com/elevenses/ ​
  • P.E with Joe "The Body Coach" is streamed live every day, Monday - Friday. His videos are available on Youtube.
    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyCLoPd4VxBvQafyve889qVcPxYEjdSTl 
  • Seomra Ranga have a Stay at Home Quiz everyday on their website. They are giving away prizes too. https://www.seomraranga.com/ 
  • ​The Website Pobble365 is fantastic – there is a new photo shared daily with lots of ideas for oral discussion, writing and art activities. This will make you think outside the box! I'd love to see some pictures of your ideas and creations from these daily photos! http://www.pobble365.com/
  • Pretend that the book you're reading is going to be made into a movie. Create a movie trailer to advertise it. 
  • Create a flower pot or a bird's house using recycled materials around the house.
  • Build a fort using pillows, blankets and chairs. You could use it as a cosy and peaceful place to read your book!
  • Design a new cover for your book or draw your favourite scene.
  • Write a short diary entry each day, documenting what you're getting up to and what's happening in the world. You'll be glad to have it to look back on in years to come!
  • Create a dance routine to your favourite song.
  • Play in the garden,  go for some walks/cycles or do a GoNoodle to keep fit and healthy.
  • Write a letter to your grandparents, relatives or friends who you can't see at the moment.
  • Bake something tasty!
  • Do a jigsaw or puzzle.
  • Don't forget to enter the competitions on the home page to win a hamper!

​Make sure that you try and send some pictures to the email address of any of the activities that you try, as I'd love to see all your brilliant, creative ideas.

I can't wait to see you all soon!
​Ms. Munroe

World Book Day
We all made a great effort to dress up as different characters from some of our favourite books for World Book Day 2020.
Junk Art
We began constructing famous buildings that were used during the 1916 Easter Rising, as part of our group projects. We used recycled materials and a lot of imagination and creativity! 
Outdoor Fun
Enjoying the sunshine while estimating and measuring different areas around the school!
Our Bee Projects    
Friendship Week 
We were paired up with Ms. Haughney's first class for friendship week and we did lots of different activities together each day. We were each paired up with a buddy who we got to know and looked out for during the week! We really enjoyed it and had lots of fun helping and playing with our buddies!
Merry Christmas!
Working with First Class
We had lots of fun working with Ms Haughney's first class, helping them with their Christmas clay art projects!
Intel Mini Scientist Competition
We spent a long time working very hard on our science projects for the Intel Mini Scientist Competition,  and all of our hard work really paid off. Every project was unique, interesting and very informative. We worked very well as teams and some of us even did projects on our own. On the 15th of November, two judges came from Intel and we all presented our projects to them. They were very impressed with every single project and they said it was extremely tough to pick a winner! We really enjoyed taking part in the competition and we learned a lot!

Garden Activities
We had lots of fun harvesting cabbages that we planted in the garden in 4th class. Some of us were lucky enough to get to bring one home to cook for dinner! We then planted some crocus flowers in our garden plot. This will ensure that lots of bees can pollinate in our school garden, which is very important for the environment!
Happy Halloween!
Maths Week Tangram Challenge 
As part of the Maths Week acitivities around the school, we were challenged with creating a square shape using all 7 of the tangram pieces. The person who was able to complete the task in the quickest time was the winner!
