Hello 4th class,
Your work for this week is up on Aladdin. If you have any questions or want to send me some of your work, you can send it to ccaulfield@newtownprimary.ie. Remember to send it from your Newtown email address!
Just a reminder: If you are finding something difficult or do not have time to complete a task, don’t worry about it! Try your best and do the work you can!
As this week is ACTIVE HOME WEEK, your daily challenges are movement challenges! These can count as one of your daily movement activities.

Tuesday: Spend 15 minutes doing some yoga activities. You could try to make up some of your own yoga moves too. www.cosmickids.com.
