02nd June 2020
Dear parents,
As you are aware our schools will remain closed until the new academic year in September due to the Covid19 pandemic. We will follow all guidance from HSE and the government as the Covid-19 situation evolves. Here is some homework for fortnight beginning Tuesday June 1st. I have found establishing a daily routine with my own children has been very useful in these difficult times. Here is a sample daily timetable:
09:00 PE with Joe Wicks (https://www.youtube.com/user/thebodycoach1/featured)
09:30 – 10:30 School work as set out below
10:30 – 11:00 Break/snack
11:00 – 12:00 RTE Home School Hub (TV)
12:05 – 12:30 Kids Fitness Class with Donna Dunne (https://www.facebook.com/donnadunnefitness/)
Please try to complete the following school work this fortnight. It does not need to all be completed in one day or week. Each family should do as much (or as little) as they can, taking into account your own family situation during these times. Reading, Oral Language (discussion) and Maths should be prioritised.
1. Handwriting – Half page daily
2. Better Maths – One unit per week
(Some have finished this book. Please ensure all “Problem Solving” sections are also completed) those finished should proceed to the attached work booklets in email. Answer sheets are also attached for parental assistance.
3. Maths – Look at AREA. Complete the unit on AREA in Busy at Maths. If you do not have this book at home don’t worry. CJ Fallon the publishers have made all their books available online. Simply go to https://my.cjfallon.ie/dashboard/student-resources and select your child’s maths book. Write answers into a copy. Units begin on the following pages: 3rd Pg 161, 4th Pg 159, 5th Pg 112, 6th Pg 125. Estimating and finding the area of everyday household items is also a good exercise. (EG: The kitchen table, my reading book cover etc)
4. Better English – One unit per week (Beginning at the next unit)
5. Starlight – One story per week and questions A-G. (Beginning at the next unit)
Some are also finished or nearly finished this book. Those who are can visit the CJ Fallon website and under your class and English, select the READ AT HOME series. Pupils should read a story daily and answer the questions afterward, mixing it up between answering orally to a parent and writing them out.
6. Oral Language: Folens publishers have also made their books available online. You can login at the following web address: https://www.folens.ie/login Once logged in, try to open the “Starlight” resources for your child’s class. Here you will see 12 interactive Posters. Get your child to watch, listen and discuss with you about the TOPICS 5 and 6 this fortnight.
7. Fuaimeanna agus Focail –One unit per week (Beginning at the next unit)
8. Gaeilge (Oral Language) Folens online Abair liom - Resources - sceal 17 – listen to the story and comhrá and do your best to do the interactive activities based on this story (3rd and 4th: Lá sa pháirc) (5th and 6th: Pairc and Chrócaigh)
This book is also nearly finished for some. Additional Gaeilge can be found by accessing the CJ Fallon website. Select your class and Gaeilge, followed by the Leigh sa Bhaile for your class. Again one story per day followed by the short questions afterward would be very beneficial.
9. Reading – Read library book (Or home book) for 10 minutes with parent.
10. Big Writing – Finish this story: I was walking along the beach on a beautiful sunny evening when all of a sudden I noticed something shiny floating in the water….. Try to use at least 3 paragraphs and lots of adjectives (describing words). When ready write your story.
11. Talk with children about the importance of both Internet and farm safety.
12. Some art ideas:
- History: Cool downloadable packs. This week it Famous Explorers.
- While we may be missing out on our school tour this year, why not go on a virtual one!! Loads of cool places to visit around Ireland and the world at the following link. I had lots of fun with this one also!

Dear parents,
As you are aware our schools will remain closed until the new academic year in September due to the Covid19 pandemic. We will follow all guidance from HSE and the government as the Covid-19 situation evolves. Here is some homework for fortnight beginning Monday May 18th. I have found establishing a daily routine with my own children has been very useful in these difficult times. Here is a sample daily timetable:
09:00 PE with Joe Wicks (https://www.youtube.com/user/thebodycoach1/featured)
09:30 – 10:30 School work as set out below
10:30 – 11:00 Break/snack
11:00 – 12:00 RTE Home School Hub (TV)
12:05 – 12:30 Kids Fitness Class with Donna Dunne (https://www.facebook.com/donnadunnefitness/)
Please try to complete the following school work this fortnight. It does not need to all be completed in one day or week. Each family should do as much (or as little) as they can, taking into account your own family situation during these times. Reading, Oral Language (discussion) and Maths should be prioritised.
1. Handwriting – Half page daily
2. Better Maths – One unit per week (Beginning at the next unit)
3. Maths – Look at CAPACITY. Complete the unit on CAPACITY in Busy at Maths. If you do not have this book at home don’t worry. CJ Fallon the publishers have made all their books available online. Simply go to https://my.cjfallon.ie/dashboard/student-resources and select your child’s maths book. Write answers into a copy. Units begin on the following pages: 3rd Pg 165, 4th Pg 163, 5th Pg 170, 6th Pg 172. Finding the capacity of everyday household items is also an interesting exercise.
4. Better English – One unit per week (Beginning at the next unit)
5. Starlight – One story per week and questions A-G. (Beginning at the next unit)
6. Oral Language: Folens publishers have also made their books available online. You can login at the following web address: https://www.folens.ie/login
7. Fuaimeanna agus Focail –One unit per week (Beginning at the next unit)
8. Gaeilge (Oral Language) Folens online Abair liom - sceal 20 – listen to the story and comhrá and do your best to do the interactive activities based on this story. (3rd and 4th: Ceiliúradh) (5th and 6th: Rac gan Stad)
9. Reading – Read library book (Or home book) for 10 minutes with parent.
10. Big Writing – Finish this story: At a basketball game, your character is surprised when… Think about the things you see, perhaps hear and smell also. When ready write your story.
11. Talk with children about the importance of both Internet and farm safety.
12. Some art ideas:
· GAA Heroes colouring sheets: dropbox.com/s/xt8352nbd6196ho/GAA_Heroes_Colouring_Book.pdf?dl=0

Dear Parents,
I hope you are all keeping safe and well and that you and your children have enjoyed the Easter break.
As you are aware, our school will not be re-opening before May 5th.
Prior to our school closing, I provided a pack of home learning materials for all children. If possible, please continue to try to complete the activities set out in these packs. You may find it beneficial to follow the suggested timetable provided in these packs. However, it is completely understandable that this may not be possible every day. The most important thing is to stay safe and well during this time.
If you would like to send me any completed activities, please take a photo of them and send them to [email protected]
I will correct them and return an email to you as quickly as possible.
If you have any questions or require any support, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Kindest Regards,
Anna Scott
