Ms. Byrnes's Class
Welcome to Ms Byrnes’ 4th class. It’s been a great first month in school. We have been using the ipad working on interactiveresources.co.uk and each child in the class has their own login to the mathswhizz programme.
The swimming lessons each Tuesday are being enjoyed by all of the children. Swimming is such an important life skill. I am seeing plenty of progress made by each child.
We will be taking part in the Try Five + STEM programme through TU Dublin where the children will engage with workshops involving Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. It should be enjoyable and interesting for the children. We will being microscopes, magnets, creating rockets, flashlights and weather predictors. We are looking forward to visiting TU College next year.
The class are reading the novel ‘Born to Run’ by Michael Morpurgo. This dog has three different owners and we will be finding out which owner he stays with.
In History we read the myth ‘The Children of Lír’. We created artwork based on this and the children are currently typing their recount of this.
The children are earning golden awards tokens regularly as we are lucky enough to be a very kind class.
Well done to the first students of the week this year so far: Ashanti, Mason, Lucy and Nevaeh.
