May 25th to 29th WORKPLAN

Welcome to another week of remote learning boys and girls! It is amazing how we have become used to this new way of learning. 

My sons were so excited to see some baby ducklings on the River Erne in Belturbet and they want you to see the videos we captured of them. We think the mammy duck has eight ducklings in total. Scroll right to the bottom of this post to see them!

You now have your copies and books back to make things a little easier. In the bag I sent home I also printed you revision maths sheets from my Planet Maths teacher's book to work on so you will be kept busy up until the end of term.

The drive thru last Thursday was strange but it was lovely to see some of you and your parents. 

There is lots of extra work to browse through here and some notes and links to help you with the normal work I've set for you.

Do whatever you are able to do at home.      

(It is important to keep practising your reading, writing and tables regularly though.)

Remember to send me an email this week, even just to say hello, and include at least TWO pieces of work if possible.
