Good Morning Rang a Sé!
I hope you had a nice weekend. I have sent home some work for you to do this week and a reference sheet which explains it in more detail. As always if you have any questions or want to send me work you have completed, email me at cmaguire@newtownprimary.ie. Some of your schoolbooks can be accessed online, so if you don't have one at home with you, check the website links below to see if it is there. I have included some daily challenges and life skills tasks for you to try this week and some ideas for additional maths and English work. You might be interested in taking on a science challenge, building a mobile sculpture and balancing the forces within it. You can learn more about this challenge here - https://www.sciencebuddies.org/stem-activities/mobile#summary.
A very exciting week ahead for Active Schools Flag as we take on the Active HOME Week challenge. Look at the Active HOME Week blog post to learn all about it!
I hope you all have a great week and I look forward to hearing from you.
Take care,
Ms. Maguire
