Welcome to Ms. Mulqueen's 4th Class A
Happy Easter
We have made it 3 weeks of home learning! Well done to everyone who has put in such a big effort to continue their hard work from home. I hope everyone takes a well earned break and enjoys their time off while staying healthy and happy. I look forward to talking to you all on our video chats after Easter and can't wait to hear what you get up to over the next 2 weeks. I'd love to see some pictures of the art, crafts, baking or writing for fun you might get up to. Stay safe I'll be putting up a few fun activities over the next couple of days for anyone who wants to give them a go and I will also show you some of the progress I've made with my garden.
Best wishes,
Ms. Mulqueen

Busy Workers in 4th Class A
I received 2 wonderful emails from children in our class this last week. Both of them had been really busy writing and drawing. Lojeyne wrote a wonderful report all about sheep as well as a recount story about when she visited a farm. Shahariar sent me on a fantastic picture of a farm he drew including lots of different animals. Lojeyne received 10 extra dojo points for her excellent writing and Shahariar got 5 extra points. If you want to earn a few more Dojo points why not send on some of your great work to imulqueen@scoiltreasanaofa.ie.

More Sheep
As I was telling the 8 people that got the chance to join our video chat today I've been out and about helping on the farm over the last few weeks. Yesterday we needed to dose the lambs this means we needed to give them a little injection to protect them from diseases and keep them nice and healthy. After we dosed them we put a little, blue mark on their head with something that looks like a giant crayon. This is so we can tell which lamb we've already injected. You can see in the pictures once we were all done they had a small journey to a new field full of fresh grass. I got some brilliant name ideas today too, I think we'll have to settle with Dolly, Ruby and Rosie.

Make sure to fit in some form of exercise into your routine also because it's so important that your mind stays healthy.

Please try and do the work either in a spare copy or notebook or at the back of your Maths copies.
On Monday we always do our wow word definitions so today I’d like you to start by using this link to write down the definition for each of these words. https://www.dictionary.com/

Spring on the Farm
Some of you may be wondering what I've been up to since school has closed. Well I'm at home in Co. Clare at the moment and as you know I live on a farm. It's been a busy few weeks with lots of lambs being born. I have shared some pictures below of some of the new additions to the farm. Also have a flick through to see our gorgeous dog Collie. Triplets are quite common when sheep have lambs let's see if you can spot them in the slideshow? If you have any name suggestion for our set of triplets send them on via email they can become our class mascots.
Here are some ideas of what you could work on based on the lovely sheep. Why not give some of the activities a go. If anyone completes any 2 of the activities and sends them on they will get an EXTRA 10 DOJO POINTS!
Writing: Write a narrative story about the farm
Write a report on sheep
Reading: Why not read an animal themed ebook for free just follow the link below and enter 4thclassa as your username and the password is 4thclassa as well https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/for-pupils/pupil-home?utf8=%E2%9C%93&age_group=&series=&theme=animals&query=¤t_page=books
Maths: If there are 34 sheep on the farm and 15 sheep have twin lambs, 10 sheep have single lambs and 9 sheep have triplets how many lambs are there altogether?
Science: Life cycle of a sheep https://study.com/academy/lesson/sheep-life-cycle-lesson-for-kids.html
Art: Drawing/Painting why not draw a picture of one of the cute lambs I'd love to see what you've come up with.

Hi 4th class,
It's finally the weekend time to take a break from the books. Have a look at the Active Flag section of the website there is a fantastic work out idea for the whole family. It can be done anywhere! It's so important to keep your body healthy as well as your mind at the moment so make sure to fit in a bit of exercise each day.

Mother's Day
Tomorrow is Mother's Day and I know many of you might not be able to go out to buy a present. Everyone knows homemade cards are always better than bought ones anyway so why not let your creativity flow and design your very own Mother's Day card. There are some ideas below which I found online but you can always make up your own design. You don't need coloured card why not just use normal/recycled paper and colour it in yourself.

If cards aren't your thing why not show off your great cooking skills and make your mother breakfast in bed in the morning. Make sure when cooking you do have adult supervision. Remember you can keep it simple why not make her favourite cereal or toast. It's the thought that counts.
Hope you all have a safe and happy Mother's Day.
Best wishes,
Ms. Mulqueen

The Lost Ceilí Commemoration
We were lucky enough to be invited to take part in the commemoration of the lost Ceilí of 1916. We all got dressed up in traditional clothes of the time and danced two traditional Irish dances in Donore Centre including the Siege of Ennis and the Walls of Limerick. It was great fun and we wanted to say a huge thank you to all the parents who helped get our costumes ready for the day.
Tulips for Spring
We planted some lovely tulips this month even though they may have been planted a little late we're hoping they should flower soon.
Pancake Tuesday
We celebrated pancake Tuesday with plenty of pancakes and delicious toppings.
Cooking
Over the last 5 weeks we have been learning how to cook. With the help of Vivienne and Carol (our experts) we have made chicken wraps, vegetable soup, brown scones, spaghetti bolognese, chicken curry, apple crumble, burgers and wedges as well as raspberry buns. It has been great learning all these new recipes and I hope everyone will get a chance to practice them all at home too.
Learning about the Normans
In January we started learning all about the Normans. We started building our motte and bailey structures. It took many weeks of hard work but they turned out fantastic. We also had a visit from a very special historian from the heritage council who taught us even more about how the Normans lived especially here in Dublin. She brought in lots of different artifacts for us to look at and hold.
December Fun
December was a great month full of lots of fun activities. We created our own ginger bread houses, went carol singing and even had enough Dojo points to have a very special hot chocolate party.
Science!
In November the children learned all about heat they used junk art to create a hut which would withstand the cold, harsh climate of the Arctic have a look below to see some of the different designs.
Seasonal Art
We had so much fun creating these wonderful still life drawings from chalk pastels. We looked carefully at the unusual pumpkins to create some beautiful artworks.

Welcome Back
Welcome back 4th class A. I can't wait to start off the year again with such a wonderful bunch of children.

Have a look at our cool printing of the bee hive. You'll never guess how we created our hexagon honey effects.

World Book Day
On the 7th of March we celebrated World Book Day. It was a huge success with so many of the children dressing up as their favourite character from a book. Some of the teachers got in on the act too. Have a look and see can you recognise any of these characters below?
Pancake Tuesday
We were well prepared for pancake Tuesday this year. We made our pancake batter in class on Monday so that on Tuesday we had delicious pancakes. We used our multiplication skills to figure out how much of each ingredient we needed and measured everything carefully. On Tuesday we enjoyed our pancakes with lots of different toppings.
Grandparent's Day
We celebrated grandparent's day last week in Scoil Treasa. We were so lucky that so many of our wonderful grandparents could come and visit our class. We made cards for all our grandparents even if they couldn't make it on the day and we asked some tough questions to the grandparents who did visit. I know all of 3rd class would really like to thank all the grandparents for coming as it was a wonderful experience.

Piet Mondrain
Recently the children studied the work of famous painter Piet Mondrain. We looked at his paintings and responded and then created our own interpretations of his work. Have a look below.
Tree Day
We have been busy learning all about trees and how they grow this week. We have embarked on a very special project which will last many months. We collected lots of different kinds of nuts and seeds such as acorns, hazelnuts, beech nuts, conkers and ash samara. We have planted some of these into pots and look forward to seeing if they will grow.
Shape Trail
The children are learning all about 2D shapes this week. The whole class got the opportunity to go on a shape trail around the school. They found lots of different shapes outside and inside. They also investigated which shapes tessellate and which don't. Take a look at their work below.
Recount Writing
The children in 3rd class A have been busy all month writing wonderful and exciting recounts. Take a look at some of the children hard at work. We can't wait to show all the parents our published work during our writing celebration coming up soon.
Fun with Science
This week we had loads of fun learning about mixing in Science. We made our very own bubble mixture using washing-up liquid and water. We had to be careful to measure properly and not to over mix our mixture. We then made our bubble wands using pipe cleaners and we were ready. Have a look at our amazing bubbles below.
Welcome back 3rd class A
We are delighted to be back to school after our summer holidays. We are excited for the year ahead and can't wait to get started. We are so lucky in 3rd class A because we have 2 new students who have joined our class. So we want to say a huge welcome to Clara and Ezzaldeen.
Welcome First Class A
We are very happy to be back at school after what felt like a long summer. Our new class room is very big and we are looking forward to working very hard and showing our new teacher our best work. Have a look at us on our first week back looking super happy and excited to be at school.
October Art- Trees!!
We were learning all about trees in October and really enjoyed it. In art we looked at how two famous artists based their art work on TREES and we felt very inspired. Have a look at our creations.
Green Gladiators! 💚
During Green Schools awareness week, we made a video to show the other classes just how well we are recycling in First Class A. We had a lot of fun creating the video and we think our school mates really liked it too. During this week we also learned about climate change and about how humans are affecting animals lives. We were horrified and really don't want anymore to become extinct.
Write to Read Celebration 📝🎉
We were soo excited to have our parents join us in class to read our stories we had written. We had all worked so hard on writing and designing our books and were delighted with how our parents enjoyed them.
Perhaps we will become famous authors!
