Post date: 26-May-2017 14:07:53

Dear Parents,

I hope everyone enjoyed the Hurling Blitz last Thursday. Some info and photos are on the class website. 1st Class completed their Micra T Standardised test last Tuesday. They will complete their Sigma T (Maths) test this Tuesday. The results will be included in your child’s report card for the school year. You should get those in mid June.

Word Wallet activities.

This week we are learning words that have a magic e at the end and contain the ‘o’ sound

1. home, hope, spoke (Mon)

2. note, broke, bone (Tues)

3. dome, awoke, spoke (Weds)

4. coke, joke, choke (Thurs)

Click into http://www.ictgames.com/phonemePatterns/index.html or on the ICT GAMES link on the right side of our class webpage to see list of words containing of all these sounds we have been learning.

Tricky Word activities. – We are revising the Tricky Words 7 list – yellow words

1. Match the coloured card to its place on the white card.

2. Say the word.

3. Ask the children for a sentence with that word in it. (I saw that they were lost.)

We are revising the Yellow Words this week – Tricky Words list 7. Our Aistear theme is moving from the shop to Electricity. If you have any small electrical (safe) items (mains or battery) please send them in. We are going to design and make some small battery circuits and talk about how electricity gets in to the school and home. Could you show them where the fuse box and check if there are any sockets in the bathroom.

Thanks

Mr. Gleeson
