Some upcoming dates.

Lime Tree Theatre to see Back to the 80’s on Feb 2^nd.

School Tour on Friday June 22^nd.

Grandparents Day on Feb 13^th (Pancake Tuesday) – If there are some grandparents out there who would come in and talk to the class about the differences between long ago and today that would be great. Bring along some items or photos to add to the interest.

Super Troopers:We are on Lime Week 3. There are some fun activities to try at home.

Word Wallet activities.

1. Jolly Phonics Ask the children to make a word or words using the sounds (green cards) they already have. This week we are working on words that contain the “ue” sound.

due, fuel, cue (Mon) rescue, clue, glue (Tues) blue, true, statue (Weds)

value, cruel, tissue (Thurs)

2. Make sure to use the correct “ue” sound and not the “u” and “e”

Sight Words: Match, say, make a sentence. Seniors are learning and 1st are revising tricky words 3.

We are talking about animals and St. Brigid. In Maths 1^st class will be continuing subtraction tables.

Thanks
